The school is based on three principles:

Love of G-d

Love of Torah

At BHJA, we believe that portraying these values in a positive light leads students to feel a love towards Judaism and an appreciation of its practices.  Students are taught through these wisdoms respect for all individuals and the beauty of diversity within our community and the world.  

Our Mission
