Oakland day school expands its grades The Oakland Hebrew Day School board has decided to establish a middle school for grades six through eight. OHDS originally intended to go through only the elementary grades. But the school's growth and recent studies showing a day school education through eighth grade is likely to produce the most committed Jews influenced the decision. In expanding its program, OHDS will have the only modern-Orthodox middle school in the East Bay. Hebrew University Professor Ehud Sprinzak will make several public appearances during his Bay Area visit in late January.
