"I can be a lot more assertive in class."
Quote from Derech Emunah student on the benefit of an all-girls school
“Derech Emunah Seattle Girls High School is a diamond of a school! The learning environment and top-notch education more than met our daughter's needs. Throughout her four years, she felt the genuine concern and personal devotion of her teachers. Her science and math classes prepared her for an easy transition to college. Chana got a 97 and 91 on her first two nursing school tests in biology and chemistry based on the math and science knowledge she received (and some studying on her part). Personal growth through the loving guidance of her Limudei Kodesh teachers helped our daughter realize she wanted a career in which she could help others. We can never thank the Derech Emunah community enough”
