What The Bet Shraga Hebrew Academy of the Capital District does
Mission
To create an outstanding integrative curriculum in general and judaic studies, encouraging intellectual curiosity, critical thinking and love of learning, celebrate the richness of jewish tradition, torah and israel, and inspire ethical growth rooted in the values of justice, kindness and tikkun olam, the principal that we must each do our part to make the world a better place.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
The hebrew academy of the capital district was established to provide jewish young people with an education integrating the intellectual rigor, ethical norms and spiritual warmth of the jewish tradition with the values of the american democratic heritage and the wisdom of the western intellectual tradition. The academy's goal is to produce graduates who are well grounded in judaic and secular studies and prepared to pursue both at more advanced levels, sensitive to ethical and moral demands in their dealings with all persons, committed to the religious traditions and zionist aspirations of the jewish people, loyal to the american democratic way of life, and possessed of a keen sense of civic responsibility toward the various communities american, jewish and universal in which they will participate as adults. Classes at the academy are small, allowing for an intimate teacher-student relationship. In this way, the school's sense of community, strong as it is, does not override its respect for the individual.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2020 to 2021, from $2.2M to $2.7M (+24%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2017 2% · 2019 2% · 2021 6% · 2022 7% · 2023 11% · 2024 4% · 2025 0%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
49% of THE BET SHRAGA HEBREW ACADEMY OF THE CAPITAL DISTRICT’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (90% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 5 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
100% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund THE BET SHRAGA HEBREW ACADEMY OF THE CAPITAL DISTRICT.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 97% · 2018 97% · 2019 80% · 2020 79% · 2021 59% · 2022 53% · 2023 79% — diversifying over time.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How long its funders stay

Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
99% of THE BET SHRAGA HEBREW ACADEMY OF THE CAPITAL DISTRICT's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $33k that is directly attributable, 63% of it comes from New York funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $2.4M arriving through sponsors registered in 7 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
