Welcome to the North Campus of The Leo Baeck Day School. Our state-of-the-art facility is located in Thornhill and operates both a Lower and a Middle School. The Lower School, which is itself divided into Pre-School and Elementary, includes a Morning Nursery, Morning and Full Day Junior Kindergarten, Full Day Senior Kindergarten, and Grades 1 through 5. Our Middle School operates from Grades 6 through 8 and functions as a "school within a school". There are over 500 students attending the North Campus. We presently offer three classes at each grade level with an average student-teacher ratio of 21:1.

In addition to offering an enriched General Studies and Hebrew/Judaic Studies curriculum, we provide many opportunities and programs for our students to learn about and get involved in community issues and Israel. The North Campus offers our students a unique learning environment that includes two gymnasiums, an art studio, a high-tech computer lab, a fully equipped science lab, and a recently upgraded resource library and audiovisual department.

Our senior administrative staff includes:

Desmond Bender, Director of Academic Development
Yvette Burke, Supervisor of Student Services
Irith Rosen, Hebrew Coordinator
Mike Levinsky, Middle School Coordinator
Rochelle Chester, Lead Teacher-Librarian
Robyn Buchman, Director of Admission
Jessica Langer, Director of Communications.

I invite you to visit the North Campus and to search other areas of our web site to discover the many varied and exciting programs offered at The Leo Baeck Day School.

B'shalom,

Howard Laderman, Campus Principal
