• EHA demands the highest of standards of academic excellence within both Judaic and general studies, as the pursuit of knowledge causes a deeper understanding and appreciation for all that G-d creates and provides.

​​

• EHA lives by our sages’ dictum: “Decency and Kindness precede Torah Study.” The faculty model Middot Tovot, positive behavioral education, and carefully craft this learning into the fiber of everything we do.

​​

• Our Torah demands of everyone a civic responsibility, and that we actively engage as global citizens of the world in which we live.

​​

​​

• EHA graduates young Torah scholars with a thirst for Torah’s wisdom, granting them the skill set to unlock our sacred texts and debate our tradition’s deepest questions.

​​

• Judaism is a religion of all five senses. Our experiential education curriculum immerses our students in the sensory components of religious practice and in the spirit and joy of religious observance.

​​

• As our students explore their evolving world, their guidance and education employs the very best and current educational practices that focus on student-centered 21st century skills. Technology, collaborative game-play, creativity and every best teaching tool is used as we guide our students on their own journeys
