Over the past 25 years, “the Cheder,” as it is affectionately known, has established itself as a school known for its profound love of Torah learning and commitment to mentchlechkeit, in addition to setting high standards in General Studies, and has become a model for Jewish education in Toronto. The Cheder’s enrollment has grown exponentially. With over 360 students, the Cheder currently has parallel classes from Senior Kindergarten through Grade 8.
