Dudu and Orit Yumtovian “The Hettena School is a family to us. ❤️” The Hettena School has been a loving and supportive family, walking with us every step of this challenging journey. The staff’s dedication and compassion shine through in everything they do, always prioritizing the well-being of both the students and their families. The atmosphere is warm and joyful, with a wide range of activities and programs that enrich the students’ experiences. The educational and paramedical teams are highly skilled, working with professionalism and care while maintaining close collaboration with parents. We thank God for the privilege of having our son, Yishai, in such a wonderful, embracing, and loving place. With heartfelt gratitude, The Yumtovian Family ❤️

For us, the Tana School is much more than a school setting, for about 5 years it has been a home and a family! The dedicated staff does everything and more wholeheartedly and unconditionally to give the maximum to the students. Fun activities and experiential learning, investing all their energy so that our children smile and are happy and joyful every moment of the day. Always expressing concern, caring, inclusive, and also a listening ear when needed, ready to be there for us even outside of working hours, and always with a smile, a hug with empathy, warmth and love. They say you don't choose a family, but we definitely chose this family, and there is no doubt that this is the best choice we made for the benefit of our daughter. The Yaish Family

The Youssefian Family We are the proud family of Eden, an 11-year-old girl with 235% disability, cerebral palsy (CP), severe intellectual disability, and mobility challenges that require a wheelchair. When searching for a school, we weren’t just looking for a place that could support Eden’s development—we wanted a place that would nurture her, believe in her, and surround her with love. That’s when we found the Hettena School. From the moment Eden joined Hettena, she has received not only professional care but also warmth, patience, and unwavering support. And the results have been nothing short of miraculous. Eden, who once relied entirely on a wheelchair, can now walk with light support. She has begun trying foods she once refused to touch. She understands choices, expresses preferences, and can point to a picture of her mother when asked. She is even beginning to learn letters and words. But above all, she goes to school and comes home with a smile, and for us, that is everything. Today, as we mark our seventh year at Hettena, our gratitude knows no bounds. Entrusting Eden to this incredible school has been one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. The staff gives their heart and soul to every child, working hand in hand with parents to ensure meaningful progress. They go above and beyond in every way, providing not just education and therapy, but a true sense of belonging. For any parent looking for more than just a school—a warm, loving home where their child will be supported, encouraged, and truly cared for—we wholeheartedly recommend the Hettena School. With endless appreciation, Eden’s Family ❤️

Since our Susan joined the Hettena School, she has been embraced by a supportive and nurturing environment that fosters her growth and development. The dedicated staff provides personalized support, empowering her to overcome challenges while ensuring she feels a true sense of belonging. Hettena is more than just a place of learning—it is where she gains essential life skills and builds meaningful social connections that will stay with her for years to come.

The Tana School is a warm home with a family atmosphere.. The staff there is amazing, gives a good feeling and is always interested in what else can help and advance the child. The relationship with us is important to them, and we also have difficult and challenging moments, they are there for us. And most importantly, the trust I have with the team. I put the children in the morning calmly and knowing that my children are well there and that they are taken care of for everything ️ Thank you to the entire Tana team. I appreciate and admire you for the holy work you do and my children are blessed with you! The Tyree Family

The Tahan Family I write these words with deep appreciation and immense gratitude for the incredible work you do every day for my eldest daughter. After 11 years in your kindergarten, I can clearly see the profound impact the staff has had on her growth and development. From the moment we became part of this family, we have felt the warmth, care, and dedication you show her. We know that this is one of the main reasons she feels so loved and secure at school. Your unwavering dedication and patience give us, as parents, an invaluable sense of trust and peace of mind. Every child in the Hettena School receives individualized care and attention, and you always find a way to meet their unique needs with understanding and adaptability. To us, school is not just a place of learning—it is a safe, nurturing, and loving environment where children with special needs can truly thrive. Thank you for your tireless commitment, your patience, and every effort you make to empower our children. Thank you for giving our daughter the opportunity to grow, learn, and flourish in such a positive and supportive space. With heartfelt appreciation, Talia, Ella’s mother
