Differentiated Learning Opportunities
Every learner has an independent style and strengths.
With skill-based levels and one-on-one support, our academics are designed to allow each student to reach his maximum potential and gain the skills he needs to be successful in the modern world.
In partnership with Gateways: Access to Jewish Education, students have access to a Learning Specialist to assist with student learning needs.
Hands-On Learning Opportunities
Located in the center of a city rich with innovation and history, YOY takes advantage of the many educational opportunities Boston offers.
Some of our experiences:
- The Bunker Hill Monument (11th grade American History)
- Genetics Experiment at Novartis Labs (Biology)
- Lecture Series Hosting Speakers on a Variety of Topics
College and Yeshiva counseling
Twelfth grade can be an overwhelming time for students as they decide where to advance their learning post-high school. With knowledgeable Rebbeim and a dedicated college counselor on staff, Ohr Yisrael is committed to helping talmidim and their parents navigate the Yeshivah and college application process with confidence.
Our devoted Rebbeim help our boys find the best yeshiva program for their needs. As well, Mr. Tabachnik meets with students and their parents to assist them with the college admissions process.
High school is the gateway to the future, and we’re here to help guide our students to the best choice for them.
