Frankel Jewish Academy welcomes Jewish students from all backgrounds to join our supportive community at any point in their high school career. We aim to ensure a successful transition into our dual curriculum by helping students and their families integrate into the FJA community in various ways:

1. Entry-level Hebrew courses: Students are not expected to have any prior knowledge in Hebrew. We offer a range of Hebrew courses from novice to advanced to ensure the right fit for every student.
2. Entry-level Jewish Studies courses: Students are not required to translate Hebrew texts right away
3. Learner’s Minyan: Students new to day school are encouraged to join this group their first year to learn the foundational pieces of a Jewish prayer service. 
4. Host family pairing: New families are paired with current FJA families before school starts to provide a connection and resource for parents and students.
5. Robust student support team: Our learning specialists, one of whom focuses on Hebrew and Judaic Studies support, assist students as needed throughout the year during study hall periods and X-block (office hours) offered multiple days per week.
6. New parent and student orientations: Every family receives guidance on daily school operations- everything from lunches to holidays will be explained before school begins.
