What sets Tashbar apart

Three things we get right: the learning, the teachers, the students

Tashbar's instruction is student-centered. It aims to give each boy yiras shamayim, healthy relationships with the people around him, and real knowledge and skills, in a way that is hands-on, thorough and genuinely fulfilling.

  • Alef · The learning

    Torah that is sweet, and within reach

    We believe Torah belongs to every child. Boys join the class that fits them best and move ahead at their own pace, in tracks that line up with mainstream grade levels.

  • Beis · The teachers

    Experienced educators, caring mentors

    A boy learns when he feels safe and at home. Our Rebbeim, teachers and Morahs build that warm, joyful classroom first, and keep the teacher-to-student ratio very low.

  • Gimmel · The students

    Curious boys, given real responsibility

    Children want to learn and are capable of far more than we expect. At Tashbar they run a minyan, build real structures, go fishing, write poems and sing solos.

Limudei Kodesh & General Studies

Serious learning, twice over

Every day at Tashbar holds both: Limudei Kodesh grounded in Torah, Halacha and Derech Eretz, and General Studies that aim for real proficiency in every subject. The goal is the whole person: a boy who loves to learn, carries himself with good Middos and is ready to lead.

  • Torah instruction that builds skills and Ahavas HaTorah
  • General Studies with high academic expectations
  • Tracks that correspond to mainstream grade levels
  • Hands-on, experiential projects alongside traditional learning
