Yeshiva Gedolah of South Bend

9th - 12th, Boys

Yeshiva Gedola of South Bend fosters the growth of Talmidim based on a traditional Yeshiva curriculum, emphasizing excellence, both in the breadth and understanding of Torah. In addition, the Yeshiva’s Rebbeim work hard to understand each Talmid’s personal character and how they think and learn, which enables them to grow according to their individual strengths.

We strive for excellence in all areas of study, and our secular program as well is designed to meet these high standards. The end result is to give the talmidim the essential groundwork they will need in order to succeed in life as well as in their interactions with peers and society. The Yeshiva places a special emphasis on refined Midos, emotional growth, and personal responsibility, with the aim for developing the Talmud into a true Ben Torah.
