Founded under the umbrella of Ohr HaChaim in 1993, Mesivta Yesodei Yeshurun is a four-year high school whose curriculum is largely Yeshiva-preparatory.The building includes dormitories for students from Jewish communities from the Greater New York City metro area, as well from around the United States and Canada.In addition, there is a full-court basketball gym in the lower basement, a common feature in vertically built New York City schools.The Yeshiva currently has one branch high school, Mesivta Yesodei HaTorah in Naugatuck, Connecticut, under the leadership of Rabbi Aryeh Reiss.[5][6] Additionally, there was a second High School branch in Elkins Park, PA on the Jewish Federation Campus, but it has since closed.
