About our school: Our inquiry-based learning program fosters critical thinking, problem-solving, confidence, collaboration, leadership, innovation and more — all in a global learning environment. Through inquiry, our students master the same core competencies as their peers at other schools, but JDS’ inquiry program takes students further, teaching them to think deeper, collaborate and problem solve. Core academics are enriched with Jewish studies and serve as a foundation for lifelong learning. JDS students know who they are, understand what it means to be part of a community, and are empowered to make a difference in the world. At JDS, curiosity leads to discovery.
