Manhattan Day School

The rabbis and congregants of Congregation Ohab Zedek and The Jewish Center helped Dr. Joseph Kaminetsky to found the school, who served as its first Executive Director before being recruited by Rabbi Shraga Feivel Mendlowitz to work at Torah Umesorah.

Starting from Nursery 3 through 8th Grade, children can join extracurricular activities in addition to their coursework.

The after-school program options include karate, ballet, songwriting, dance, art, robotics, chess, cooking, and E2K.

Students choose a topic to research and present to various influencers and organizations to show their support for Israel.

The MDS Stand With Israel team has presented to the Upper West Side community, Alan Dershowitz, the United Nations, and at the Museum for Jewish Heritage and has partnered with Stand With Us, AIPAC and NORPAC, among other organizations.
