Welcome to ZJA High School.
Kind, Capable, & Connected.
Yes, our students learn math and science and history (and a whole lot more). But they also learn to become incredible friends, inspiring people, and proud, committed Jews.
Israel Advocacy, Shabbatons and trips, and community service are just a small sample of the clubs and committees that our students participate in, developing a sense of responsibility and a culture of kindness that will serve them for life.
Student-focused, Exceptional Academics.
The rigorous academic program at Zucker Jewish Academy of Las Vegas is implemented by caring and experienced teachers with an individualized focus on each student's needs. Our curriculum places a strong emphasis on STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) and English Language Arts as well as proficiency in Hebrew and a strong foundation in Judaic studies. Our students will enter their post-high school years as proud Jewish women, equipped to excel in college and become community leaders ready to succeed in any career path they choose.
Where Each Student Shines.
A Curriculum that Nurtures the Mind and Soul
We take a whole-child approach to teaching, with a focus on simultaneously fostering intellectual curiosity and ability along with social-emotional growth. We meet each student where she’s at to customize a package of academic skills, personal development, and extracurricular outlets that will help her inner self shine.
