Michal Deskalo
Director of Admissions
Thank you for your interest in Milwaukee Jewish Day School. MJDS is more than just a school, we're a family. We are a community of caring teachers and staff, parents, grandparents, alumni and friends.
Families choose MJDS because they seek a challenging and supportive environment where they can be partners in their child’s education. An integrated curriculum guides students toward academic excellence, strong critical thinking skills, and pride in their Jewish heritage.
We believe in our student-led approach to learning. We have faith in our core values of empathy, wonder and tikkun olam (repairing the world). We embody our rally cry "from me to we" as we integrate Jewish values into every aspect of our students' learning and celebrate the ways Judaism connects with one another.
Our Program
Early Childhood
Our enriching, three-year kindergarten journey focuses on exploration, curiosity and Jewish values.
Lower School
First through fourth grade students are provided opportunities to own their learning, becoming knowledge seekers and creators.
Upper School
Upper school students are given more choices and authentic opportunities to make a difference in the community, connecting with their Jewish values.
