Our Story & Philosophy
A proud past. A purposeful future.
For almost 60 years, Hebrew Academy has been inspiring learners and bulding a strong community rooted in education, values and excellence.
Our Story
Hebrew Academy was founded in 1967 through the merger of two established Montreal day schools, bringing together a shared commitment to educational excellence and student success.
Over the decades, the school has evolved alongside the city it serves, expanding its programs, opening new learning spaces, and continually adapting to meet the needs of students and families. From its early years in Outremont to its current campus in Côte Saint-Luc, Hebrew Academy has remained focused on providing a dynamic and enriching educational experience.
Today, nearly 60 years later, Hebrew Academy continues to inspire generations of learners through strong academics, meaningful relationships, and opportunities that help students thrive both inside and outside the classroom.

Our Approach
At Hebrew Academy, we believe education is about more than academic achievement. It is about helping students discover their strengths, develop confidence, and build the skills needed to succeed in an ever-changing world.
Through rigorous academics, character development, leadership opportunities, and a culture of belonging, students are encouraged to think critically, act with integrity, and pursue excellence in all they do.
Our goal is to help every student grow into a curious learner, a confident individual, and a compassionate contributor to the world around them.
