Philosophy

Torah Day School of Atlanta is an independent private day school serving close to three hundred and fifty students kindergarten through eighth grade. Offering a rigorous academic program both in Judaic and general studies, TDSA's goal is to infuse its students with a love of learning and a deep-seated connection with their Torah heritage. Our faculty and administrators seek to teach and develop each child academically, socially, physically and spiritually, in an emotionally safe and nurturing environment.

TDSA's graduates have gone on to pursue careers as rabbeim, lawyers, entrepreneurs, doctors and nurses, speech and occupational therapists, plumbers, published authors, teachers, computer specialists and more.

Torah Day School of Atlanta is a beneficiary agency of the Jewish Federation of Greater Atlanta. Torah Day School of Atlanta admits students without regard to race, color, national or ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students of the school. The school does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national, or ethnic origin in the administration of its educational policies, tuition assistance programs, and athletic and other school-administered programs.

Over the years, TDSA has continued its phenomenal growth and has moved several times to accommodate its flourishing student population.

Changing lives for the better.

“TDSA is a warm, welcoming community of learners and educators. The team heartily commended our faculty and staff on their warm welcome and sincere hospitality. Former students, current students and parents, in one voice, consistently commented to the visiting team on how their teachers changed their lives for the better..”
