Bais Yaakov information


Bais Yaakov students praying at the Western Wall.

Bais Yaakov (Hebrew: בית יעקב also Beis Yaakov, Beit Yaakov, Beth Jacob or Beys Yankev; lit., House [of] Jacob) is a genericized name for full-time Haredi Jewish elementary and secondary schools for girls throughout the world.

Bais Yaakov, started by Sarah Schenirer in post-World War I Kraków, was at the time a revolutionary approach to Jewish women's education. It has since achieved mainstream status within Orthodox Judaism, with branches located worldwide in every Jewish community with a significant population.

While many of these schools carry the Bais Yaakov name, they are not necessarily affiliated, though they may be for other reasons.
