Ohr Chana High School, providing over 20 years of excellence in high school girls’ education, launched this September with a blast of new innovations for the coming school year. With just a month of school having elapsed, the school has already introduced themes and goals for their G.O., Mishmeret, Chesed, Tech, Tzniut, Events, Chagim, Ruach, and Birthday committees.

Students spent most of Elul preparing their hearts, minds, and neshamot for the uplifting Chagim. Several classes have bonded on grade trips and have also been hosted by the Kew Gardens community and at Congregation Ner Mordechai during their annual High School Elul Shabbaton.

Since October 7, Ohr Chana’s students daven while keeping in mind the hostages, soldiers, and the Jewish nation. Ohr Chana’s programs give the girls a sense of responsibility for our brothers and sisters in Israel. What a special nation we are privileged to be part of, and at Ohr Chana, the students feel that unity.

Academically, Ohr Chana offers tracks in both Judaic and General Studies. Girls have opportunities to join the Honors track, which allows them to earn college credits during their high school journey. This upcoming month, seminary and college guidance counselors are ready to assist seniors in their search for the right college or seminary experience.

We are excited for the phenomenal year ahead. Join the legacy of Ohr Chana High School: the Orthodox Sephardic school that has a place for any Jewish soul seeking to discover and reach its ultimate potential. Don’t miss our Open House this Sunday, November 3. For more information, call 718-426-9369, extension 614.
