Answer:

What is Kehillah Jewish High School mean?

Kehillah Jewish High School is an independent college preparatory high school located in Palo Alto, California. "Kehillah" is a Hebrew word meaning "community." The school is one of a series of pluralistic (community) Jewish day schools in the United States at the high school level.

In the fall of 2005, the school moved from its original location in San Jose to its new campus at 3900 Fabian Way, Palo Alto, where it also hosted the Keddem Congregation (Reconstructionist) for several years.

Kehillah Jewish High School was founded in 2000 and opened in the fall of 2002 on the Blackford High School campus in San Jose with 32 9th grade students. Rabbi Reuven Greenvald joined Kehillah as its Head-of-School in the summer of 2004 and left in March 2007. He was replaced by Lillian Howard, who most recently served as the founding Head of School of the Shoshana S. Cardin School in Baltimore, Maryland. Upon Lillian Howard's retirement in June 2013, Rabbi Darren Kleinberg, Ph.D. became the Head of School. After Rabbi Darren Kleinberg, Ph.D. left in the end of the 2019-2020 school year Dr. Daisy Pellant became the new Head of School.

Since 2002, Kehillah Jewish High School has grown from a 9th grade class of 33 students to a community of 220 students in grades 9-12. The school has experienced multiple years of double-digit enrollment growth. "Kehillah is the fastest-growing Jewish community high school in North America," said Marc Kramer, co-executive director of Ravsak, a national Jewish community day school network. "Growth trends tend to be slow, and in recent years, relatively flat, but Kehillah has had a long and consistently effective growth, counter to the broader trends."According to national data collected by Ravsak, enrollment over the past seven years has dropped 13.7 percent at Jewish community day schools overall and 4.3 percent at Jewish high schools, while it increased by 60.8 percent at Kehillah in the same time period."

In addition to American students, Kehillah has a large Israeli student population. Students’ first languages include Russian, Hebrew, Spanish and French as well as English. They live as far south as Morgan Hill, as far north as Burlingame, and as far east as Castro Valley and Fremont. Approximately half attended public school through 8th grade, and the other half attended private middle schools.
