"CJDS helps students find and nurture their identities and intellects, connecting simultaneously all parts of their secular/religious, socio-emotional, intellectual, kinesthetic, artistic, musical, scientific, whole-body selves.  The faculty and staff know them, care for them, and push them.  As our oldest has transitioned to middle school, he has found his seven previous years to have served him incredibly well."
