Stella K. Abraham High School for Girls[2] is a Modern Orthodox Jewish day school, a college preparatory high school for grades 9–12, located in Hewlett Bay Park in Nassau County, New York, United States.
The school is part of the Hebrew Academy of Long Beach which purchased the former Lawrence Country Day School 9.2-acre (37,000 m2) campus in 1992 for $2.2 million.
The school is accredited by the New York State Board of Regents and has been accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools since 1999.
[citation needed] In 1992, The Hebrew Academy's purchase of the site in Hewlett Bay Park caused controversy when the village sought to acquire the property through eminent domain,[4][5][6] leading to accusations of antisemitism.
[7] A $55.0 million civil rights lawsuit was filed and after nearly two years, a compromise was reached allowing the school to operate but limiting its size and the suit was dropped.
