Kadima Day School in Los Angeles to Close Amid Financial Struggles
Kadima Day School, a nondenominational Jewish school in Los Angeles, will close at the end of the school year due to financial difficulties and declining enrollment. The school, which serves pre-K through 8th grade, has been heavily reliant on funding from Shawn Evenhaim, its primary donor. Evenhaim decided to cease his financial support after the school failed to diversify its donor base and increase student enrollment. Despite a fundraising campaign that raised nearly $900,000, the school could not achieve financial sustainability. The school is in negotiations to sell its campus to another Jewish day school, hoping to maintain Jewish education at the site.
