YESHIVA BEIS DOVID SHLOMO MISSION STATEMENT
YBDS is dedicated to offering an academically challenging and strong traditional Jewish education by providing a comprehensive, well-balanced curriculum.
Our atmosphere is serious but warm, conducive to learning and success. Our primary goal is to empower our students with Jewish values so that they will go out into the world with an unwavering devotion to living a moral and ethical life and to be upstanding citizens, loving their Jewish identity. Upon graduating, students will be equipped with the critical thinking skills needed for success at institutions of higher learning. They will also leave our doors, knowing that the values they have internalized are more important than the content they have absorbed or the tests they have passed.
Finally, it is our vision that the Yeshiva community: staff, students, and parents—be devoted to studying Torah, to achieving excellence, and to demonstrating a spirit of cooperation and friendship. In reaching toward that goal, Yeshiva emphasizes the importance of good midot such as:
· Ahava – love for G‑d, Torah, Klal Yisrael, Eretz Yisrael, Mankind and all of Hashem’s creations.
· Kavod - respect for others and their property
· Tzniut – modesty in dress, speech and actions
NON-DISCRIMINATION POLICY
YBDS admits students of any race, color, national or ethnic origin to all rights, privileges, programs and activities generally accorded or made available to students of the school. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color or national origin in the administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, scholarship programs or other school administered programs.
