As a school, we have been given an opportunity to do a mitzvah during this crisis, and we feel blessed that we have the resources and ability to do so. Lisa Feingold, Director of Enrollment, has been in communication with 9 families (representing 18 children) who are looking to leave Israel (or have already left), come to South Jersey and enroll in our school. Opening up our school and community to these families seeking safety and normalcy is exactly what KBA is all about–leading with our Jewish values.
We are grateful to the Raymond R. & Gertrude Saltzman Foundation and the Jewish Federation of Southern New Jersey for stepping up to generously commit financial and human resources to help us with this initiative.

We are fortunate to be part of a such a strong South Jersey Jewish Community. Am Yisrael Chai.
