Torah Day School of Houston

Torah Day School of Houston is a Jewish Day School in Houston established in 1977 by the Texas Regional Headquarters of the Chabad Lubavitch. It offers a Jewish education to grades K-8 in addition to its Early Childhood Center for children ages eighteen months through four years old.

About

Rabbi Shimon Lazaroff opened the school along with parents ^[1] in an attempt to provide quality Jewish and general studies education for the Houston Jewish Community.

For over thirty years its students have received a traditional Jewish education, comprehensive in scope, and a simultaneous general studies program.

The dual curriculum eliminates the need for after school religious classes as it provides daily Judaic learning experiences for pre-school through eighth grade students.
