Committed to educating each child according to his needs, the Yeshiva is devoted to allowing every neshama to grow and flourish. Accordingly, an extensive resource room program flourishes within the Yeshiva. Students who need additional support for Judaic or general studies are instructed by trained professionals who provide the skill development necessary for progress within a formal classroom environment. This small group and individualized instruction has enabled classroom success for many children.

The Yeshiva also provides self-contained classes for students who are not yet ready for a traditional classroom setting. The individual needs of these children are met in classes that are limited to eight students. Many of these students are able to successfully participate in a variety of mainstream classroom activities. As of September 2003, twenty-one students have been completely "mainstreamed" into regular classroom settings.

The school maintains a certified school counselor and a licensed psychologist. These professionals coordinate the efforts of teachers, parents, and, when necessary, outside resources to help the children develop coping, social, and problem solving skills that encourage individual growth and a positive school experience.
