I think it's a neutral chassidish school. I know people mostly send their because they didn't want to vaccinate so I'm not sure they have a specific type otherwise.

Whoever I ask hasn't heard of the school. Is it under a different name perhaps ? Do you know if it's a legal and established school ? Personally do vax but more wondering if it's a legal established type or hemish style run ?
Thanks !

Very nice school. Very into simplicity and Pashtus, same idea as Bais Shifra Miriam, but more Chassidish.
You may have some neutral or Heimish parents sprinkled in but it's mostly a very Chassidish parent body.

It's a real mix as they basically accept everyone. They have very chassidish to more modern chassidish and everything in between. Not everyone that sends there doesn't vaccinate. They do not take government programs afaik. They also have a lower learning level then average chassidish schools.

I believe their level of learning is on par with most local chassidish schools.
The school is a mix of very chassidish and neutral chassidish, they just don't have as many nitty gritty rules as most chassidish schools.

Yes, I have seen the crowd. Ranging from very chassidish to more chilled chassidish.

Most are pretty chassidish. They do have some that are more open, but not in a being cool way. Just that this is who they are.
In general they allow for more breathing space than many schools do.

What does Chilled Chassidish mean to you. I know the crowd there very well and know maybe 1 or 2 chilled Chassidish people.

I would say it's 75% very Chassidish, Shpitzels and double covered and short simple shaitels.
10% Erlich neutral Chassidish. 4% not Chassidish. And maybe 1 or 2 people I know that are chilled Chassidish.

I hear. I guess it depends which schools you're comparing to. I do know some schools that their curriculum is almost identical to.

And they also have some that used to be very chassidish and are now pretty modern. They really do have all types, but most are regular chassidish.

Yes, they have yiddish & English.
The education is probably most comparable with Toras Imechu or Satmar.
Though they do have their own style of learning.

The majority of Bas Yisroel's parent body is very Chassidish.
Plus they have a very strict no smartphone policy.
It's a warm low-key place.
