Hi,

I am debating between sending my daughter to ohr chadash academy in baltimore or bais yaakov school in Baltimore. Anyone know if ohr chadash is a good school academically? Any insight on these two schools will be really helpful!

Both schools are good. And they’re very different.
BY is a typical BY and or Chadash is a MO mixed school. It’s like night and day. (Not in a bad way.) What are your hashkafos? Where do you go to shul? Is there something specific you’re looking for in a school?

While OCA may serve a predominantly MO population, it does not look like an MO school to me. The hashkafah of the administration appears to be more to the right.

Based on their website, OCA does not teach girls gemara, and their Rabbinical Advisor is a musmach of Ner Israel. I was not able to find the words "Modern Orthodox" in their self-descriptions on the website at all.

That probably wouldn't bother OP if she is also considering BY, but if someone was looking for a lehatchila MO school like Maimonides or Ramaz, OCA would be a significant compromise.
