Solomon Schechter Day School

Students willing to learn for excellence and try to accommodate teachers to improve their values.

As a raised Kenilworth resident, I had fond memories of the school system and had such high hopes. With covid, we had moved back into town and with my own child attending Harding Elementary, the past 2 school years have been disheartening. The school system protects its image over the well being of the students and will always brush the most severest cases under the rug. The entire school board and school faculty LACKS diversity and we have been treated with racism and favoritism. My child has had nothing but trauma from this school and has no motivation to pursue academically. The school prefers to point fingers at my child versus taking responsibility or action towards anything/anyone else, as it’s easier than solving the actual matter. With a real estate career of my own, fair housing is not only my duty but my love for society and people. As a parent, I have not remained silent and will continue to spread awareness when it’s rightfully so. Everyone is entitled to their own, I speak solely about our experience. No child should have to feel isolated, unfavorable, and singled out due to race or privileges (in the school/town system). We will not continue to take residency or take part of the school system for the future.

Unqualified teachers. No clubs, fun programs or anything besides sports for the students. No trips. Very basic school. No frills and no fun. Don't walk RUN to any other school.
