Yavneh Academy of Dallas offers an outstanding dual curriculum that combines the highest college preparatory courses with an unparalleled Judaic studies program. A community-based school in a Modern Orthodox setting, the school's unique mission goes beyond preparing students to excel in college and career – it prepares them to lead a life of integrity and honor. Yavneh's low student-teacher ratio allows each student's curriculum to be tailored to maximize their strengths and grants teachers unparalleled interaction levels. This individualized approach to education has been vital in the success of its students. And with composite SAT and ACT scores that are markedly higher than the national norm, it is no surprise that Yavneh graduates have gone on to attend many of the premier universities in the nation. Moreover, they have been offered over $8.3 million in merit scholarships to date. However, academic success is only half of the story. Yavneh students are distinguished by their leadership, civic responsibility, and commitment to Israel. With more than $100,000 raised annually for causes like Students Against Terrorism and each student typically accumulating over 250 hours of community service, Yavneh graduates go on to lead at their chosen universities and beyond. Yavneh's boys and girls work side-by-side in a nurturing environment to develop future community leaders in college and beyond. From classes to activities, Yavneh students learn the skills they need to build a bright future. Established in 1993, Yavneh has been instrumental in keeping the Dallas Jewish community vibrant. Its commitment to serve the entire community, regardless of affiliation, has helped bring synagogue congregations together. The school also makes every possible effort to afford its superior education to all, so no Jewish student is denied a Yavneh experience for financial reasons. Our greatest strength at Yavneh is our outstanding faculty, whose subject matter expertise and excellent teacher-student relationships nurture and bring out the best in every Yavneh student. Yavneh students are encouraged to explore their strengths and talents and develop productive and fulfilling adult life skills. Acceptance by the leading colleges and universities is just the start of what Yavneh students achieve. After college and graduation, they move on to become some of the most successful and influential men and women in the Jewish community. Yavneh's mission is to prepare Jewish students for college and university distinction with a lifelong commitment to Torah study and Jewish traditions, the Jewish people, and the State of Israel. Yavneh Academy is well-known among leading Dallas independent private schools for our rigorous academic dual curriculum, warm and nurturing environment, exceptional and personalized college preparation, and award-winning extracurricular programs. Yavneh Academy's dual curriculum is unrivaled among Dallas high schools. It combines the highest level of college preparatory courses with an unparalleled Judaic Studies program and is carefully crafted to maximize each student's potential. Yavneh students are given the tools to help succeed in college life and become leaders in their chosen professions and communities. When coupled with a remarkably low teacher-to-student ratio, the school's best-in-class faculty allows the customization of each student's curriculum. This individualized approach to education enables teachers to work closely with students to maximize his/her unique strengths and talents, ensuring each student is both nurtured and challenged with an ambitious curriculum.
