Discover who you are and learn to make a difference
North Shore Hebrew Academy is a Modern Orthodox yeshiva situated in the heart of Great Neck, New York. From the youngest students in our early childhood program (T-K), to our lower (1-5), middle (6-8), and high school students (9-12), our community of scholars come to school each day, driven to expand their knowledge, explore their passions, and rise to meet new challenges.
NSHA offers a vibrant, welcoming environment where learning thrives – and every student discovers their path to success. In classes taught by accomplished educators and experts in their fields, our students pursue academic excellence, dedicate themselves to Torah values, and grow their love for Israel.
Our student body is cosmopolitan, arriving from across the metropolitan New York area. Students join us from Great Neck, Roslyn, the north and south shores of Long Island, Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Westchester, and Connecticut. At NSHA, children of all ages develop into passionate learners, critical thinkers, and visionary leaders who go on to do incredible things in our Jewish community and the world.
"We have a responsibility as educators to ensure our youngest learners are exploring the world around them in a productive, nurturing environment - and reaching their fullest potential!"
Elana Helfgott, Director of Early Childhood Division
"NSHA is so much more than a school. It's our extended family. We are so proud to be NSHA parents. Our kids demonstrate every day how they incorporate the core Torah values our amazing faculty impart to all our children."
Akiva & Sharon Fishman, NSHA parents
"I cannot thank you enough for the opportunity NSHAHS gave me to explore my passion for research, science, and computer science. My internship at the CDC would not have been possible if not for your guidance."
Shira Eisenberg, 2016 alumnus
