High School

Grades 9-12 

AJA High School General Studies classes are offered at the College Preparatory, Honors, and Advanced Placement (AP) level, allowing every student to be challenged at the right level of rigor as they develop college-ready skills.

Our four major pillars

Torah u’Maddah

We believe that learning secular studies together with Torah provides a fuller view of Hashem and the world Hashem created.

Zionism

We believe there is religious significance not only to the Land of Israel but the modern State of Israel.

Jewish Unity

We believe that we have much in common with all Jews, regardless of affiliation, and we seek to promote communal unity.

Equal Education and Opportunity

We believe that educational opportunities should not be limited by a person’s gender and ritual opportunities be as inclusive as possible within the framework of Halacha.

Clubs 

At AJA, we offer a broad range of extracurricular opportunities designed to inspire creativity, leadership, and community involvement. With over 20 student-led clubs and multiple avenues for artistic and athletic expression, students can explore their passions and discover new interests beyond the classroom.

Our clubs reflect the diversity of student interests and the initiative of our student body.

Community Time

Once a week, the High School gathers for Community Time, featuring programming designed and run by AJA Student Council. Community Time includes special activities, contests, guest speakers and discussions, plus events and presentations to build student connections and school spirit.

 

Extracurriculars

Theater

High School students work throughout the year on our Girls’ Chagiga (festivity) show — a full-scale musical performance written, directed, produced, and performed by our High School girls. The show often adapts well-known Broadway productions or features original scripts infused with Jewish conflicts, themes, and humor. Students also serve as the technical crew, managing sets, lighting, and sound effects.

Art

AJA’s Art Program nurtures creativity and appreciation for visual expression. Students develop:

  • An understanding of art appreciation

  • Critical and creative thinking skills

  • Awareness of communication through art

  • A sense of pride and accomplishment in their creations

  • Boys: Baseball, Basketball, Flag Football, Soccer, Wrestling
