The mission of the Lubavitcher Yeshiva Academy (LYA) is to provide and promote the highest quality Judaic and secular education to a diverse community of Jewish children.
Our aim is to cultivate students to reach personal excellence, and to be responsible members of American society.
Within a warm nurturing environment, our focus is to inspire a love for learning, develop academic and social skills, and foster responsibility in each individual child.
LYA was founded in 1946, in response to the Greater Springfield
Jewish community's need for a quality Jewish day school. In 1999,
LYA became the first Jewish dayschool to be accredited by the
New England Association of Schools and Colleges. The more than 90
students that the school serves each year from across the spectrum
of Jewish life includes orthodox, conservative, reform and
unaffiliated families.The children range in age from 15-month
preschoolers to post B'nai Mitzvah eighth graders. Classes are
purposefully small, with a teacher-student ratio of 1:10, and a
whole child teaching philosophy is employed to ensure that each
student's need are met. Emphasis is placed on academic achievement,
developing a Jewish identity and building a strong sense of
community responsibility.
My school is a Leader in Me School where every child and staff is encouraged to reach their full potential as a leader. The school has a family atmosphere and staff and students synergize together. LYA is a great place to grow, learn and have fun. We offer many community events, family education events and holiday programming and have a welcoming environment.
