Ida Crown has ensured my kids have a well rounded High School experience and are prepared for college. They have so many opportunities for their students to find themselves. We love Ida Crown!

It was a great school and it's very good. Was not the greatest place for me. I encourage those who are seeking a modern Jewish education and also secular studies.

The school is a warm, caring, college prep school with excellent teachers and administrators. The variety of classes, clubs, sports, etc allows for every student to be engaged in not only school but extracurriculars as well. Teachers are available any time to help students learn and grow. The attention to the child's whole self allows every student at Ida Crown to be set up to succeed.
