A True Story That Reflects the Power of Specialized Education Joseph completed rst grade at a mainstream yeshiva. His teacher complained that he was “disorganized and not interested.” His parents paid for tutors. Joseph could not organize his activities or thoughts. He endured endless hours of tutors and homework to only end up failing. Within his rst semester at Gesher Yehuda Joseph was a different child; he was happy. Home life was fun again! At Gesher an educational team designed a syllabus just for him. Within the year his reading skills improved. Joseph found enjoyment. His conndence grew. Making and keeping friends became a natural experience. Joseph went to Gesher’s high school, Yeshivah Prep. He performed well on Regents, continued to grow, and move on to college. Apply Now!
