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.

At CJDS, learning never stops—even in the summer! ☀️
Our Lower School STEAM teacher, Mr. Isham, recently attended the 2026 National Arts Integration & STEAM Conference in St. Louis, where educators from across the country explored innovative ways to bring creativity, collaboration, and hands-on learning into the classroom. 🔬👩🏼🔬
From coding LED lights and experimenting with paper microscopes to integrating music, engineering, art, and problem-solving, Mr. Isham is returning with exciting new ideas that will inspire our students to think critically, create boldly, and explore the world in new ways. 🔎🎨🎶🧪
Professional growth opportunities like these are just one of the many ways CJDS invests in both our teachers and our students. We believe the best learning happens when curiosity, creativity, and innovation come together—and we can’t wait to see these fresh ideas come to life in our classrooms this year!
