Kehilla Upper School of Nashville

Our Kehilla graduates are well-rounded, civically engaged, academically curious, and deeply committed to service. They leave our community prepared not only for academic success, but also to lead with purpose, compassion, and integrity.

We cannot stop reminiscing about our graduates!

“In 8th grade, you did a science project explaining the physics behind card throwing and then taught your classmates how to throw cards. In hindsight, maybe we shouldn’t have allowed that. There were cards everywhere."

Even then, you had a gift for turning curiosity into community and making learning unforgettable.

We can’t wait to see where your creativity and energy take you next. Congratulations, Class of 2026. 🎓”

"You chose something new and unproven and you put faith in yourself and in the idea of Kehilla. And in doing so, you made this dream come true, and you made Kehilla a reality."

Kehilla is launching something new, and for the right student musician, it is a rare opportunity to be part of building something from the ground up.

Kehilla is forming a small, select student ensemble made up of committed players who want to challenge themselves and each other. Ensemble members will have dedicated time during the school day to rehearse, work closely with experienced professional musicians, and take part in performances both in school and out in the community.

If you’re serious about your music, Kehilla offers a place to grow, collaborate, and perform at a high level alongside other dedicated musicians.

To help launch this initiative, Kehilla will award a music scholarship to one outstanding student musician who is excited to help shape a developing ensemble culture at the school.

A school where they play, they create and they experience the world.
