Gesher Jewish Day School - now in its new building!


Shalom! Gesher, Northern Virginia's Jewish Community Day School, welcomes you to our website. If you are a Gesher parent, a member of our community, or relocating to Northern Virginia, we hope you will find this site useful.

Gesher Jewish Day School is Northern Virginia's Jewish community day school. Founded in 1982, Gesher proudly serves a population of diverse Jewish backgrounds and affiliations. A private, co-educational day school for Kindergarten through 8th grade, Gesher offers a rigorous dual curriculum of Judaic and General Studies. Gesher prides itself on being a place where every child can shine.

After many wonderful years housed in the Jewish Community Center of Northern Virginia, Gesher has moved into its new, state-of-the-art facility, designed to meet the academic mission of our community day school. Our new address is 4700 Shirley Gate Road, Fairfax, VA 22030.

We hope you will visit the Gesher site often and share your feedback with us.

Enrollment Information? Gesher is accepting new students into Kindergarten for the 2008-2009 school year,  and also into Grades 1-8. We believe that a Gesher education is the best gift you can give your child – it's a gift for a lifetime. Please click on Admissions (above) for more information.
