Who Attends Schechter?

Every year, parents from 30 communities throughout the Chicago area (see map) choose Solomon Schechter Day School to educate their children.  Our diverse community includes families who attend more than 40 synagogues and represent a wide spectrum of Jewish observance.  Our families originate from the United States, Israel, Chile, Argentina, Russia, Ethiopia, and more.  Our students and families value the richness and diversity of our Schechter community.

 

From Generation to Generation
I loved being a Schechter student, and I treasure my Schechter friends to this day. Now, as a parent, I have a deeper understanding of the gift my parents gave to me and my brother and sisters. We want our  children to experience what I had as a child -- a strong foundation of knowledge guided by Jewish history, tradition, and values. No other school can do this like Schechter.
