Kinneret Day School

Every school is a reflection of its management team and, over time, the principal choose the right people that meets his/​her vision.
As opposed to most principals who focus on administration, this principal is first and foremost an educator.
This is reflected in the teaching staff ethos — they understand kids and are able to create a great teaching environment. The kids trust the teachers and thus able to learn, be creative, reach their potential while still be kids.
That’s not an easy eco system to create, but kinneret day school is exactly such a place.
It’s the right place for your kids if you want them to grow to be both kind and successful.

You know the old adage, you get what you pay for. We’ll even thought this school is inexpensive as far as private school goes, ‘you get what you pay for.’ The lower grade teachers, i.e. pre-​school and kindergarten and very kind and creative.
The principal, although caring, lacks any vision and creativity. Most of the staff has been there for years and are just plain horrible. Hebrew and Judaic Studies are taught by non-​observant Israelis. Although the kids DO learn Hebrew well, love of Torah is not, and cannot be taught, by people who don’t practice! and don’t really believe! So, most is just ‘going through the motions.‘
Another thought is the school tends to have a good amount of kids with large behavior issues. The problems are never addressed adequately by the staff. When you pay tuition money, you don’t think that you’ll have to deal with these kinds of issues but you sure do.
All and all, I do not recommend the school
