Shaping Our World
The caliber and broad range of our student's education provides them with the knowledge and the skills needed to choose the path that is appropriate for each individual student. Whether they choose to be Torah or secular educators or professionals, we are very proud to know that our graduates will be enlightening the world in which we live through Torah.
TORAH STUDIES
The Rebbeim at Yeshiva Gedolah are all recognized Torah scholars and experienced educators. We have structured our staff to combine both Rebbeim who have taught here for many years, as well as more recently added Rebbeim, in order to have a blend of Torah inspiration and learning. They are all talented teachers who do not merely teach, but serve as examples to be emulated. Extremely dedicated, they work with students on an individual basis, providing the advice, friendship, and guidance critical in shaping each student’s future. The results are obvious – our graduates are accepted into the most prestigious yeshivas both in the United States and in Eretz Yisroel.

Beis Medrash Program
Our Beis Medrash Program is led by Rabbi Aron Tzvi Gross and Rabbi Aron Gettinger. The Program begins in the 12th grade, and then continues for an additional year of learning. In addition to the Hasmada and learning demonstrated by the Talmidim, the Beis Medrash is a positive influence on the younger students. We are very proud of the superior level of our Beis Medrash Program.
