Cheder Menachem is a Jewish day school in Los Angeles with a unique and special history.
The Cheder grew out of a social and religious commitment to provide the foundation of an
all-encompassing Torah and Chabad Chassidic education to every Jewish child. The school is
referred to affectionately as “The Cheder.” The Cheder has served the Chabad Chassidic
Orthodox Jewish community since its founding in 1993. The Cheder was founded as, and remains
to this day, the only Chabad Chassidic elementary boy’s school of its kind on the West Coast
of the United States. As such, its responsibility to develop Jews as leaders and teachers,
regardless of future occupations, in the community to spread the Chassidic message and
practice is the major focus of the Cheder. Today it serves over 400 students in kindergarten
through eighth grade. The Cheder is conveniently located to serve the Greater Los Angeles
Jewish community as well as students from nearby communities outside the metropolitan Los
Angeles area.

Cheder Menachem admits students of any race, color, national and ethnic origin in all the rights, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national and ethnic origin in administration of its educational policies, scholarship programs, and athletic and other school-administered programs.
