ABOUT YTA GIRLS HIGH SCHOOL
Our mission is to empower young Olot to thrive in Israel by providing a supportive and individualized educational framework that ensures successful integration and growth.
A Letter From Our Principal
At YTA Girls High School, we are deeply committed to guiding young Olot as they embark on their journey in Israel. Our foundation is rooted in Torah values, which illuminate every aspect of our curriculum and community. As it says in the verse: "חֲנֹךְ לַנַּעַר עַל פִּי דַרְכּוֹ, גַּם כִּי יַזְקִין לֹא יָסוּר מִמֶּנָּה - Educate a child according to their way, and even when they grow old, they will not turn from it" (Mishlei 22:6).
We believe that each student is unique, and we are dedicated to helping her discover her strengths, pursue her goals, and develop her connection to Torah and Eretz Yisrael. At YTA, education extends beyond academics. It is about nurturing a love for learning, instilling resilience, and building a vibrant sense of belonging to the Jewish people and the Land of Israel. With a team of passionate educators and a warm, supportive environment, we are here to inspire and guide every student to reach her fullest potential.
We invite you to join our vibrant and welcoming community, where every student’s journey is celebrated, and her future is our shared priority. Together, we can help each young Olah become a thriving part of Am Yisrael in Eretz Yisrael.
Welcome home!

Principal, YTA Girls High School
