LHA will foster within each child the understanding that they have a personal and communal commitment to their role in creating a Dirah Bitachtonim. Through providing excellence in Torah and Chassidus-based learning, encouraging leadership, and cultivating character, we will prepare our students for their role as future leaders wherever they may be.
“If we wish to have a future generation of identifiable, Torah observant Jews, we must involve ourselves in the guidance of children from the youngest age in the proper Torah path.” (Hashlichus Hachinuchis B’igros Ha’Rebbe)
Lubavitch Hebrew Academy was founded at the behest of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, and the world view of Chabad Lubavitch philosophy guides our vision and propels us forward.
A Torah true education of the highest academic standards, along with an excellent general education, to enable children to grow into productive and committed members of the larger Jewish and world community, is fundamental to our core principle of each person’s unique responsibility to partner in creating a Dirah B’Tachtonim, a dwelling for G-d here in our world. As emissaries of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, our vision is a school where a Jewish child, regardless of affiliation, can receive instruction at his/her level, and continue on to become a “lamplighter” for him/herself as well as others around him, and exert a positive influence on his/her environment.
Our vision is based on the course charted by the Rebbe’s view of a Jew’s place in the world; to educate children to be more than personally observant, rather that they will see themselves as G-d’s personal ambassador and lamp lighter, to perceive the good in the world, and to bring their own corner of the world closer to the purpose for which it was created.
