Who are we?
-
The High School of Jewish Studies, a program of the Agency for
Jewish Education, is a community institution that serves 8th through 12th grade students.
- We meet on two different sites, San Diego Jewish
Academy in North County and Temple Emanu-El in East County.
- The HSJS committee is composed of AJE board
members and parents of current and former students. In order to sustain
a partnership with our parent body we encourage parents to join the
committee and become advocates for the high School.
