The Adolph H. Schreiber Hebrew Academy of Rockland (ASHAR) is proud to look back on over 50 years of history and service to the children of the greater Monsey community.
From its inception in the autumn of 1954, the school has maintained its place as one of the leading yeshiva day schools in the tri-state area.
First housed in Monsey's Community Synagogue on Cloverdale Lane, the school was originally called the Hebrew Institute of Rockland County (HIRC).
Although other day schools and yeshivas existed, it was this need to incorporate Ahavat Yisrael into their children's education that inspired a handful of parents to establish a school that provided a religious Zionistic environment mixed with a strong general studies curriculum.
