School Notes

Heschel is a dynamic TK8th grade educational community, founded in 1972 and located on a beautiful three-acre campus in the North San Fernando Valley.
We are a pluralistic Jewish day school comprised of families who observe Judaism on many different levels.
Our values of tradition, character, and community infuse students, faculty, staff, and parents with a shared vision and meaningful purpose.
Individually and collectively, we challenge ourselves to pursue excellence.
Teachers and parents work collaboratively to ensure that we offer our students challenging and diverse opportunities for growth in a secure, positive environment with the resources to enable our children to emerge as active citizens who understand the importance of making a difference in the world.

We require that students be 4 years old by September 1 to enter our transitional kindergarten program and 5 years old by September 1 to enter our kindergarten program. We look forward to meeting you at one of our open houses.
