Jewish Ledger
In Conversation with…community leader and philanthropist Ann Pava
We truly believe that sending children to Jewish day school is the most important decision a family can make.
In 2019, the Bess and Paul Sigel Hebrew Academy of Greater Hartford and the Hebrew High School of New England merged to create K-12 Orthodox Jewish day school in West Hartford. The merged school, renamed the New England Jewish Academy (NEJA), serves students in the Greater Hartford, Greater New Haven, and Greater Springfield communities .
Thanks to the vision and generosity of community leaders Ann and Jeremy Pava, New England Jewish Academy now offers a transformative, subsidized tuition program, The Pava Tuition Initiative, for all students from kindergarten through twelfth grade.
