WHO WE ARE

Lior Academy, in partnership with Beth Torah Benny Rok Campus, brings a new kind of Jewish day school to Miami — one where academic excellence, holistic well-being, and Jewish life come together seamlessly.

Inspired by leading institutions around the world and guided by globally recognized educational innovators, learning at Lior is meaningful and joyful. Launching for the 2026–27 academic year, we are welcoming applicants for Kindergarten and Grade 1, with plans to grow through the elementary years and a vision to expand beyond.

At Lior, we believe Judaism is one — rooted in the Torah and the timeless values and wisdom that guide our people. While we may express our Judaism in different ways, we are united by a shared heritage and purpose. Lior embraces the full diversity of the Jewish community, welcoming every family who seeks to live with meaning, connection, and pride in our tradition.

At Lior Academy, we foster an environment of inclusivity, kindness, and respect for others. We encourage you to explore our website and visit our campus at Beth Torah to see how learning and life come together at Lior.

Why Lior

Future-Ready Learning

Our forward-looking curriculum integrates STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics), Financial Literacy, Arts, Sustainability, Judaic Studies, Soft Skills and more, preparing learners not only for academic achievement but for success beyond the classroom.

Experiential Jewish Life

Jewish life at Lior is inclusive and purposeful, rooted in tradition, meaning, and joy. Through daily rituals, Hebrew language, Torah, and holiday celebrations, children discover Judaism as a source of belonging and core values.

Holistic Well-being

Beyond academics, we nurture the whole child and prioritize social-emotional development — fostering self-awareness, confidence, resilience, and empathy so each student grows with purpose and inner strength, building authentic, caring relationships with themselves and others.

Global Vision, Local Partners

Founded by a group of Jewish leaders in global education, in partnership with Beth Torah, Lior brings world-class expertise to the Miami Jewish community. With an emphasis on global citizenship, students learn to think critically, engage thoughtfully, and contribute positively to the world.

Continuous Innovation

Our in-house curriculum innovation team continuously updates our programs by blending the best global practices with meaningful learning experiences and insights from successful leaders and organizations.

A Unique Learning Model

Our approach draws inspiration from the International Baccalaureate (IB) framework, blending it with hands-on, project-based learning and thoughtful technological integration to create meaningful, future-ready learning experiences.
