Today, we're overwhelmed with gratitude. The Jewish Community Federation of Richmond announced a $6 million, five-year commitment from Josh and Elly Goldberg to strengthen Jewish education, expand affordability, and support a vibrant Jewish future in Richmond.

As Rabbi Elisha Paul, Head of School, shared: "RTA is one of the finest Jewish day schools in the country, and every Jewish family in Richmond deserves the opportunity to experience what we offer. This transformational gift will help us reach more families, strengthen the student experience, and build a thriving Jewish learning community that is open to all."

We are so thankful to Josh and Elly Goldberg and the Jewish Community Federation of Richmond for this incredible investment in our students, our teachers, and our future.

Tonight, RTA families filled our classrooms for Back to School Night — meeting teachers, exploring the spaces where their children will learn and grow this year, and hearing a special presentation on executive functioning skills from Mary Margaret Ryan. Parents left with practical tools to support their children's organization, planning, and independence right alongside what we're teaching in the classroom.

Thank you to everyone who came out to be part of building this year together!

What a way to kick things off — our Back to School BBQ, hosted by the PVA, brought the whole community together for an afternoon of connection and fun! Students played, families mingled, and the foundation for a great year was set.

Here's to a year full of learning, growth, and everything we'll build together.

Building an AMAZING Year at RTA!

Brick by brick, our students are off to a fantastic start — thank you to the PVA for helping us kick off the school year with such a colorful welcome!

Our hallways are stacked with laughter, learning, and excitement as we start building something great together.

Ready for a Great Year Ahead!

This summer, our teachers took a deep dive into "Smart but Scattered", strengthening their understanding of executive functioning skills and how these skills impact student learning and success. This year, we're excited to continue that work by introducing an executive functioning coach to our program, in partnership with Mary Margaret Ryan, Director of Coaching at New Agenda.

We're also proud to share that this work is featured in this month's Richmond Magazine!

As Rabbi Elisha Paul, Head of School, explains, there's a large research base showing these types of skills help students succeed as they become independent managers of their own time. Mary Margaret will work with students across grade levels — from small-group coaching to old-school planners for our upper elementary and middle schoolers — helping them build habits they'll carry well beyond RTA.

Here's to a wonderful 2026-2027 school year!

Executive Functioning Starts Here.

Even as one school year comes to a close, RTA faculty are already preparing for the next. Today, teachers participated in professional development with executive functioning expert Mary Margaret Ryan, formerly of Collegiate School, exploring practical strategies to help students strengthen skills such as organization, planning, self-regulation, and independent learning.

We are excited to continue partnering with Mary Margaret as she works with our faculty to further integrate executive functioning skills into the student experience at RTA.
