Yeshiva Beth Yehudah

Yeshiva Beth Yehudah

Yeshiva Beth Yehudah is a Jewish day school consisting of two campuses at Southfield and Oak Park, Michigan, which serve boys and girls respectively from pre-kindergarten to grade 12. The school's curriculum is a blend of traditional and progressive, secular studies and religious studies, in Hebrew and English.

The school also includes the Norma Jean & Edward Meer Early Childhood Development Center next to the boys’ school.

The Yeshiva is known locally for its annual fund raising dinner, organized and held by Gary H. Torgow at the Detroit Renaissance Center, which usually features a guest speaker of national prominence. Previous guests include Hillary Clinton, Condoleezza Rice, John McCain, and George Stephanapoulos. Many of the area's most prominent political figures attend the dinner, including Governor Jennifer Granholm, Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, the Michigan Attorney General Mike Cox, national and state congressmen, and Michigan supreme court justices.
