Solomon Schechter Day School of Metropolitan Chicago is an independent Jewish day school where our unique combination of General and Judaic Studies imparts a deeply-rooted values system enabling critical thinkers to thrive. From our Ginsburg Solomon Schechter Early Childhood Center in Skokie, to our Sager Solomon Schechter (K-8) in Northbrook, we ignite our students' Jewish souls, educate them to their highest potential, and empower them to use their knowledge, skills, and creativity to enrich our world. We are a a 2016 National Blue Ribbon School and also have received our Independent Schools Association of the Central States (ISCAC) accreditation. Schechter’s award-winning faculty and staff focus on developing students as learners whose passion and drive enables them to create a true impact on the future. And a firm grounding in Jewish values and traditions creates a meaningful framework for our students’ moral and character development. At Schechter, children gain more than academic strength, they gain the strength of identity. And our families gain a strong and vibrant community that shares a commitment to academic excellence and Jewish life.
