Prospective Families

Why Choose LGA?

LGA offers an open, diverse, and growing inter-connected Jewish community, where the academic and social success of all students is held to the highest priority. At our school, students excel because all teachers know every child uniquely, care about their progress, and work closely with parents to ensure open communication. Rigorous academics, combined with a meaningful social curriculum, build a solid foundation for each child's future success.

LGA is also a community of families with a wide range of experience and engagement with Judaism. Embraced by the school's philosophy of acceptance and inclusiveness, families are able to explore and participate in the intricacies of Jewish culture and religion that resonate with them.
