Green Light for Chabad of Monsey Girls Campus

A brand new girls campus launched by Lubavitch of Monsey has come a major step closer to reality upon receiving final approval from the Village of Airmont, Thursday Chof Cheshvon.

The two-story, 24,000 square foot school will be located at 25-27 South Monsey Road on nearly three acres of lovely wooded land.

The new state-of-the-art campus, slated to be completed for the upcoming school year, will create sorely needed space for Cheder Chabad’s preschool and girls elementary and the Beis Chaya Mushka High School, providing a bright, spacious environment for its 250 students, which included over 100 children from NY-area Shluchim, to learn, play, and grow in comfort.

This project has been made possible by the generosity of Avraham and Devorah Hayman of Monsey, who have donated the land upon which the campus will be built, and who have also helped sustain the Lubavitch educational system in Monsey for many years.

    I heard a family in Monsey has 2 kids at home because the school does not take them for lacjk of enough funds.It is Chabad? Shamefu.

  • shame

    the fact that a child can not attend cuz of funds is a very big problem. we must not just talk and kevetch about it we must do something. if monsy is such a nice community its the personal responsibility of every one in the community to make sure every child has a education etc

  • Monsey Family

    Thank you Hayman Family for the tremendous generosity!!! We love Cheder Chabad! Our children are already learning so well in the current facility, we can’t imagine how wonderful it will be among the tall tress of SOUTH MONSEY. thank you also to the Airmont planning committee for allowing this unprecedented project to happen speedily in our days. Amen!!!

    e-Credits are available and very beneficial to help families struggling with paying tuition.

    Thank you so much Hayman family. Your support keeps the Cheder alive and thriving.

    I heard the Cheder was able to catch up on a late payment to its staff recently thanks to parents doing their part with the tuition payments. Mi Kamcha Yisroel!

    To #1 and #2, I live here in Monsey and while tuition is very hard to pay (even on a reduced plan as we have), what’s needed is to get as many kids into the school as possible so as to spread the cost of running the school across as many families as possible. More students, less cost per head. So, you want to do something about it? 1. Work with the school to lower as many operating and unnecessary costs as possible, and 2, get as many kids into the school as possible.

  • To #2

    You are absolutly correct. Every commentator must do something to help with the tuition of those parents that cannot pay. See Shulchon Aruch Harav hichos talmud torah (i think it’s in sif 2 or 3).

    Why aren’t community members taking up the torch here?! To the community of Monsey’s credit, they recently set up a scholarship fund that will help those that are most needy. This fund is independent of the chinuch mosdos that they have there. Why don’t we have something like that in CH?! Whatever happened to the idea of maas hachinuch?!

  • cool

    To number 7: you know that does not work like that. There are lots of fishes in the tank!!!!!

  • mr mosed

    some parents just have lost there job or so. if the school want to open big they have to also take in consideration the poor or else dont call your self in charge get a different job

  • to the critics

    exuberant rent = high tuition, and philanthropist are not interested in throwing money away, as rent is. so hopefully buying and building will make it easier for the school’s board to raise the funds, allowing them to reduce what is now one of the highest tuitions in monsey . Get it?!
