“An HACD education will be an important part in instilling our children with Jewish values to help them thrive throughout their lives. We value our local Jewish community and want our children to feel deeply connected to those around us.”

– Antoinette and Jay Deitcher

“After graduating, our 5 children have all moved on to succeed. Their success is in large part due to HACD and all those who worked and contributed to building the school and maintaining the community there before us. Just like the old man who planted the tree, it is our opportunity to plant for the future.”

– Ilana Kovach

“Bet Shraga played an integral role in shaping our family’s communal and spiritual life from the moment our children were enrolled. Both of our children received a strong academic foundation which allowed for success beyond HACD.”

– Steve Huz and Sharon Flom
