The Frisch School, also known as Yeshivat Frisch /frɪʃ/, is a coeducational, Modern Orthodox, yeshiva high school located in Paramus, New Jersey. It was founded in 1972 by Rabbi Menachem Meier and Alfred Frisch. The school primarily serves the Jewish communities of northern New Jersey and southern New York.
The school is named for founder Alfred Frisch, who owned the land on which the original campus was situated prior to the school's inception in 1972. The school has been accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Elementary and Secondary Schools since 1992. Its accreditation expires in 2029.[4] Over the last ten years the student population has grown from 580 to nearly 1000 students.
Frisch School is located at the Henry & Esther Swieca Family Campus, where it moved in 2007. The campus has 41 classrooms, a learning center, six science laboratories, a gymnasium, a library, music and art studios, a Beit Midrash, a "makerspace" (fabrication lab), and a publications room. Outdoors, the campus has a softball field, tennis courts, a basketball-hockey, and a soccer field encircled by a running track.[5] The campus is named in honor of Henry Swieca, who donated the campus.
