Welcome to WDS
WDS is a Modern Orthodox Jewish Day School offering a comprehensive educational experience that spans from Early Childhood (our 2-year-old Tots) through Middle School (Grade 8). We pride ourselves on instilling social and ethical values in each child and developing respect for one's self and others.

About WDS
The WDS Experience
Learning happens both within and beyond the walls of the classroom. Informal education during school hours and co-curricular activities after school combine to create a dynamic and active learning environment in harmony with the General and Judaic curricula.

Dara and Matthew, parents of Madison ('24), Emma ('26), and Nathan (’29),
“Whenever I talk about WDS to family and friends, I'm straight away reminded of all the fun and laughter had - there's always something happening that makes us laugh, but more importantly it's how prepared I feel like my children are for life and for their future. They thrive at this school, in this community and we're forever grateful we received that WDS welcome pack for our first born baby back in the day when we first moved to the area. We've never looked back!”
George and Batya, parents of Deborah (‘22), David (’24), Jacob (’26) and Esther (’28).,
“We've been with WDS for a really long time, our eldest was 4 when she attended the Ganon. WDS has been instrumental in nurturing strong Jewish values into our kids and teaching the importance of Judaism and how our children present themselves in the world. The excellence in Education is first class and their teachers - focusing not only on how they're teaching but the way in which they adapt to each individuals needs. They really understand our children - their quirks, personalities, sense of humor, they really get our kids. ”
Gal, parent of Raz ('36), Shai ('34) and Lev ('34),
“Watching my children on the stage today for the Kabbalat Shabbat was nothing short of incredible. Their growth, confidence and love of both Judaism and learning was apparent. I brought you my babies and am getting back two children who know they're unstoppable !”
