Welcome to Hillel Academy

Welcome to the web site of the Hillel Academy of Tampa.  We are a private Jewish Community Day School in the Tampa Bay area, accredited by the Florida Council of Independent Schools and the Florida Kindergarten Council,  and a member of the Jewish Community Day School Network.  At Hillel we embrace all of the wonderfully diverse aspects of the rich culture and traditions of Judaism.  Our students receive a superior education enhanced by the opportunity to learn a second language beginning in Transitional Kindergarten, with a third language introduced in middle school.
