HISTORY - Our Beginnings
Torah Academy of Milwaukee started in 1991 with five girls and a group of parents dedicated to establishing a school that would provide their daughters with an excellent Judaic and secular education without having to leave Milwaukee.
With Dr. Bernard Cohen as President and Mrs. Sora Rauch as Principal and lead teacher, a sense of pioneering and unity pervaded every class and activity.
The girls studied with dedication, achieved academic success, and were able to attend their seminaries and colleges of choice with no obstacles.
Those early years of commitment and accomplishments have set the standards that continue to guide everything we do at TAM.
Our Mission
The Torah Academy of Milwaukee (TAM) provides Jewish high school women with a challenging Judaic education that emphasizes the practice of Torah and religious principles and provides a robust secular education based on critical and creative thinking skills.
Our Vision
Torah Academy of Milwaukee (TAM) assures the continuance of a vibrant Orthodox Jewish Community by providing a superior religious and secular education for young women.
As we have grown from a school of five, we enjoy the same feelings of closeness, excitement and unity that we felt in our first year. At TAM we make it a point to build close relationships with our students. Our academic statistics have continued to improve with graduates attending the best seminaries and colleges and entering numerous technical and professional fields.
