Yeshiva University High School for Boys is distinguished as one of the premier Modern Orthodox Jewish High Schools in North America. Founded in 1916, our school has provided the template for a full featured dual curriculum education since its inception. We have graduated thousands of young men who have gone on to serve as leaders in communities around the world. Our program includes a complete College Preparatory program in addition to an intensive Judaic studies curriculum that focuses on textual and analytic skills. 100% of our graduates attend university, and 95% of them attend a yeshiva program in Israel for the gap year between high school and college.

We are passionate about working at MTA! We have a strong and committed faculty in both our Judaic studies and general studies departments. We value great teaching, teamwork, and inspiring our students to grow both as Jews and as students. We continuously seek to innovate in the classroom, in order to ensure that we are properly training our students for a bright but often uncertain world. We are a Google Education school, with a 1:1 Chromebook program for all students. We believe that strong relationships between faculty and students serve as the bedrock for achieving educational growth, and we are proud that this is a major part of our school culture. We are the only Yeshiva High School in North American to be located on the campus of a major university, and as the official high school of Yeshiva University, we have many opportunities for both students and staff that cannot be found anywhere else, including frequent lectures and programs with Yeshiva University faculty, as well as access to college courses for our 12th grade students.
