History
The Hebrew Academy of Morris County opened in 1967 with 18 children at the Morristown Jewish Center in Morristown. The school opened its current facility in Randolph in September 1980.
The school was renamed Gottesman RTW Academy in March 2014, recognizing a $15 million contribution from Paula and Jerry Gottesman, with "RTW" recognizing the school's founding Rubenstein, Turner and Wertheimer families.
