Welcome to the Ezra Academy Community.

We invite you to take a closer look at our school, a unique community committed to providing academic excellence and to developing children’s identities as Americans and Jews. We seamlessly interweave a vigorous secular and vibrant Judaic curriculum, to empower students to reach their full potential. Sixth graders, for example, will analyze creation myths from around the world and compare them to their study of Genesis in their Torah class, while they discuss their understanding of Darwinism and Intelligent Design in science. Ours is a truly dynamic, integrated learning environment that produces graduates who are academically curious and intellectually accomplished, remarkable young men and women who go on to succeed in all walks of life.

The Ezra Academy experience is more than what happens in the classroom. We also interweave values, ethics and a strong sense of community with our academics. Our community is made up of boys, girls, faculty, parents and community supporters with a wide range of interests and backgrounds. With small class sizes and our individualized approach to learning, we work to foster students’ self-confidence along with a positive and knowledgeable Jewish identity. Our alumni graduate with an appreciation of their heritage that enables them to make life decisions inspired by Jewish values, texts, culture and traditions. They are firmly grounded in who they are as Jews and their responsibility to the world.

In coming together, these threads form the strong fabric of an exceptional educational experience. We invite you to experience Ezra for yourself. Call (203) 389-5500 to schedule a tour.

I look forward to meeting you.
