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.
MILTON is a vibrant, pluralistic Jewish day school where students, families, and faculty mirror the diversity of Jewish practice in the community. Our warm, close-knit community shares in each other’s lives, learns together, participates in a variety of family and adult programs, and contributes to local and global communities through civic engagement.
The school serves more than 470 students in Pre-K – Grade 8 at our Kay and Robert Schattner Center North and South Campuses.
Think MILTON could be your child’s home? We would love to meet you to see if there might be an opportunity to welcome your family to ours.
On South Campus, the Sadnah, or workshop, is filled with old bottle tops, marker caps, buttons, large seashells, metal and wood scraps, solo cups, plastic tubes, clay, and clothespins—just to name a few things.

Remember our 5th graders who wanted new roof equipment? Our 2nd graders have a response: their roof playground design project!
Students designed playgrounds inclusive to children across all grades, including those who might have different limitations or needs. They presented their models to a real playground designer (and MILTON parent), who shared some of his designs too. These students are spreading kindness by thinking about their community`s needs, a key part of their city planning project.

Did you know we have an in-school arcade? That`s right--you can play whack-a-mole, skeeball, penguin foosball, a claw machine, and more, all complete with prizes! Our Grade 4 students worked hard on real, playable games made out of pizza boxes in Design Lab and celebrated by inviting other grades to use them.
