At Yeshiva Ohr Yisrael (YOY), our foundation is rooted in Timeless Torah, Sterling Character, and Premier Academics. We strive to bring Torah values into everyday life, nurturing middos and derech eretz alongside rigorous Judaic and general studies. Our goal is for each boy to develop a lifelong connection to Torah while achieving personal excellence.

Yeshiva Ohr Yisrael features a deeply engaging Limudei Kodesh program where students learn with passion and clarity. Guided by dedicated rebbeim, students are taught the skills to independently learn Gemara. Our growth‑oriented ethos means each student is supported to reach his personal best. Night seder and learning programs outside the regular Yeshiva schedule encourage students to excel in their Gemara learning.

Our general studies program is robust and skill-oriented, with AP courses available and personalized support for all learners. We emphasize both academic excellence and readiness for college and career, encouraging independence and critical thinking in every subject.

YOY’s dorm program, launched in 2025–26, offers a home away from home for students from across the U.S. It’s overseen by Rabbi Reuven Sebbag, our caring and experienced dorm mashgiach, ensuring a warm, supportive, and structured environment.

YOY is ideal for growth-minded young men who value Torah, character, and academics. With a low student-to-teacher ratio of approximately 2:1, we offer individualized guidance and support. All of our graduates go on to attend Yeshiva, and many continue to college or university, reflecting a strong academic foundation paired with spiritual growth.
