Why CJDS
Academically
Excellent
Guided by outstanding teachers, CJDS students tap into their strengths becoming more resilient, more motivated, and more accomplished learners. Our rigorous curriculum in general and Judaic studies fosters creativity and critical thinking and prepares students to outpace their independent school peers.
Essentially
Jewish
CJDS provides a comprehensive education in Torah, Hebrew language, and Jewish beliefs, customs and laws, instilling a love of Judaism. Confident in who they are, our students celebrate and take pride in being Jewish.
Intentionally
Affordable
Our goal is to provide a quality Jewish education to all Jewish families who desire it for their children. So we have developed a way to make tuition as affordable as possible for as diverse an array of families as possible. Our confidential Tuition Affordability program tailors costs, enabling parents from all walks of life to choose CJDS.

CJDS second graders had an adventure last week that physically reinforced our motto from this year- Keep Climbing, One Step At a Time! We are teaching our students to continue reaching for success, don’t give up, keep working- in all aspects of life. Look#jewishcharlotte #tk8 #charlottejewishdayschool #jewishmomsofcharlotte #jewisheducation at our rock climbers!

CJDS was treated to a mini concert by Noam Biskali. This inspired with Jewish joy and unity.
Thank you to the Jewish Federation of Greater Charlotte.

We know testing week can feel stressful for everyone…These words have gone viral but the name of the creator isn’t known… however it’s a great reminder. “Please do remember, amongst the students who will be sitting for the exams there is an artist, who doesn’t need to understand Math... There is an entrepreneur, who doesn’t care about History or English literature...There is a musician, whose Chemistry marks won’t matter...There’s an athlete...whose physical fitness is more important than Physics.. If your child does get top marks, that’s great!
But if he or she doesn’t...please don’t take away their self-confidence and dignity from them. Tell them it’s OK, its just an exam! They are cut out for much bigger things in life. Tell them, no matter what they score...you love them and will not judge them. Please do this, and when you do... watch your children conquer the world. One exam or low mark won’t take away...their dreams and talent. And please, do not think that doctors and engineers are the only happy people in the world.”
