Principal's Message

Since its inception in 2013, the Eleanor Kolitz Hebrew Language Academy (EKHLA) has been committed to educating and preparing confident students through high academic and behavioral standards, grounded in Hebrew language and Israeli culture. I am proud to lead a team of dedicated faculty and staff who are deeply committed to our mission and share a genuine passion for working with children.
Education has the transformative power to change lives. I believe learning is achieved by holding high standards of excellence for all students while providing a warm, nurturing environment in which they can thrive. I am honored to be part of our students’ educational journeys and to provide them with meaningful opportunities that will serve them both today and in the future.
The culture of academic excellence at EKHLA is making a powerful impact on our students. Coupled with the teaching and daily practice of our Core Values—Support, Passion, Integrity and Honesty, Curiosity and Creativity, and “Repairing the World”—we are developing tomorrow’s leaders with the skills, confidence, and strength of character needed to succeed in a global community.
I am truly honored to be part of this journey.
Come grow with us!
Kathryn Cohen
