General Studies
The goal of Yeshiva Ohr Naftoli’s General Studies program is to provide a comprehensive education through an academic experience that is designed to prepare students and enhance their learning. Under the capable leadership of our General Studies principal, Rabbi Ari Fireman, Yeshiva Ohr Naftoli provides a solid and effective curriculum that helps the students develop strong communication skills, increased literacy and math skills, and bolsters their critical thinking, thereby gaining a broader base of knowledge.
Yeshiva Ohr Naftoli general studies instructors are all bnei Torah and highly experienced in their individual fields, using their expertise to provide lessons that are both interesting and engaging. The curriculum meets core requirements and includes the coursework necessary for the NYS Regents diploma.
The Rosh Yeshiva stresses that a Ben Torah is not only a Ben Torah in the Beis Medrash; A Ben Torah shteigs in anything he's doing, including doing his best when he's in a general studies classroom.
