As the only Jewish day school in the nation’s capital, MILTON students benefit from the school’s urban location and the expertise of our community of public servants, scientists, business leaders, academics, artists, and other professionals who enrich the academic experience of our students.

This project was part of our Netivot Tefillah (prayer paths) program where students learn new skills and become empowered to lead a wide array of Jewish prayer experiences beyond school. This was just one of many offerings!
