Academics

Upper School

Barrack Hebrew Academy's Upper School provides a challenging college preparatory program in a Jewish context. We develop our students' skills and confidence, allowing them to pursue goals of higher education and positive involvement in the Jewish community.

Barrack Hebrew Academy's curriculum is rigorous and comprehensive. All Upper School students are enrolled in eight majors: English, History, Math, Science, World Language, Hebrew, Tanach (Bible) and Jewish Studies. In addition, each year there are required Physical Education and Health classes. The success of Barrack Hebrew Academy's Upper School is evidenced by our outstanding college acceptance record.

Barrack Hebrew Academy's Upper School is a community, with built-in support systems, advisory programs, and a nurturing environment that helps our students navigate adolescence in a positive way. Nobody slips through the cracks at Barrack Hebrew Academy. In addition, students involve themselves in the community beyond our school by participating regularly in service programs (Chesed), developing their commitment to Tikkun Olam - Repairing the World.

"Learning is a dialogue, not a monologue at Barrack. We are encouraged to think creatively and critically, to ask questions and problem solve. We are prepared to tackle whatever challenge might come our way."
