Sela is diverse-by-design, Hebrew-language immersion elementary and pre-school in Ward 4. We offer our students an academically rigorous, dual-language program in English and Hebrew for grades PreK3 through 5. Global citizenship is a main instructional focus. It includes the development of student skills in communication (including learning Hebrew), collaboration, and critical thinking. We develop empathy in students by learning in a diverse school community.
