As the only Jewish day school in the nation’s capital, MILTON students benefit from the school’s urban location and the expertise of our community of public servants, scientists, business leaders, academics, artists, and other professionals who enrich the academic experience of our students.
MILTON is a vibrant, pluralistic Jewish day school where students, families, and faculty mirror the diversity of Jewish practice in the community.

The school serves 480 students in Pre-K – Grade 8 at our Kay and Robert Schattner Center North and South Campuses.

Congrats to our girls volleyball team for winning their first game of the season!
Pre-K has been experiencing some back to school butterflies...literally! Yesterday, their first monarch butterfly hatched out of its chrysalis, and the last caterpillar formed one. They observed the butterfly throughout the day and released it during afternoon recess so it could fly to Mexico for the winter.
MILTON families had a great time together at the Nationals Jewish Community Day on Sunday!
Both campuses ended their week with the whole school together, singing and dancing to some classic favorites. Shabbat Shalom-here`s to a great first week!
