About
Our Campus
-
Perched on the Charles River, our campus provides an excellent environment for both scientific study and religious reflection. -
Rashi's multigenerational campus provides students and residents of NewBridge on the Charles opportunities to learn with and from each other. -
Expertly carved into the natural landscape of Rashi's campus, two outdoor amphitheater classrooms provide an outdoor learning space during the spring and fall. -
Rashi's playing fields includes two soccer fields and a baseball/softball diamond. -
Rashi's regulation-size gymnasium is home to the Rashi Rams home basketball games as well as Health and Fitness classes for Kindergarten through grade 8. -
The double-height Science lab provides ample space and storage for the myriad hands-on experiments that enhance the Middle School science curriculum. -
Our Beit Midrash (sanctuary) is an inspiring space for worship and study. -
The art studio provides a large and well-lit environment in which our aspiring artists express their creativity each week. -
Our vaulted, 10,000-volume library with story nook amphitheatre serves all grades for library time and project research. -
Rashi's 433-seat theater is home to our flourishing theater program, concerts, assemblies, and our weekly Kabbalat Shabbat celebration. -
At the heart of Jewish culture is food. Our Chadar Ochel is a kosher style, nut-safe environment where students break from their studies to enjoy their lunch. -
Rashi's three playgrounds provide ample space for all grades to let off steam during recess. -
Promethean SmartBoards are featured in every classroom. -
Each pair of classrooms in grades 1-5 is joined by a breakout room which provides space for small group instruction in flexible work groups.
Our 162-acre campus, which we share with Hebrew SeniorLife’s NewBridge on the Charles Community, is a multi-generational village, providing the opportunity for natural interactions between seniors and kids. The Rashi School, built in 2010, is housed in a LEED-certified ‘green’ building, reflecting our commitment to the Jewish value of Shomrei Adamah (taking care of the earth). It is surrounded by two playgrounds, sports fields, the Charles River, and nature trails. Inside the sun-filled school, breakout rooms connecting each pair of classes in grades 1-5 support differentiated instruction, offering space for small group instruction to enrich and support students’ academic experience.
The school, which has interactive boards in every classroom, features a science lab, music and art studios, a regulation-sized gymnasium, and a 10,000-volume library with soaring ceilings and extensive electronic resources. And because we are a community that loves gathering in both large and small groups - to learn, to celebrate, to worship - there is a Sukkat Shalom (gathering place of peace) at the center of the school, spacious Chadar Ochel (dining room), state-of-the-art auditorium, beautiful Beit Midrash (sanctuary), Middle School learning commons, and two outdoor amphitheaters.
