About us
Orlando Torah Academy has transformed the Jewish landscape in Orlando.
OTA is the foundation of the growth in the local Orthodox observant community, enabling children of all backgrounds to receive the very best Torah education in central Florida.
Beginning with 12 children in 2010, the OTA family has grown to over 210 students from pre-school through 8th grade and prepared them to enter the higher Jewish education facilities opening in Orlando.
New for the 2024-25 school year, OTA established a boys Yeshiva, High School under the supervision of Rosh HaYeshiva Rabbi Chaim Kazan.
