The Leffell School

The Leffell School Westchester's premier private Jewish day school providing a comprehensive, rigorous dual curriculum

Since 1966, we have built a warm and welcoming community fortified and strengthened by the values and practices that are at the core of our school. Our students embrace the pursuit of excellence, the joy of achievement, the importance of Jewish tradition and ritual. We are excited by new ideas and delight in our familiesโ€™ involvement in our school, in Israel, and in tikkun olam (repair of the world).
