Academics

At the San Diego Jewish Academy, we believe that academic excellence goes beyond test scores and traditional measures of success. It’s about empowering each student to grow, achieve, and excel in ways that align with their unique talents, interests, and goals. This philosophy is at the heart of our Academic Empowerment Wheel—a dynamic framework that guides our approach to teaching and learning across every division.

Each quadrant of the wheel serves as a foundation for our approach, with tailored subcategories that reflect the needs of students at different grade levels. From early learners building foundational skills to upper-level students preparing for college and careers, the Academic Empowerment Wheel shapes the way we design our programs and support our students.
