The Yeshiva University High School of Los Angeles (abbreviated YULA, pronounced /ˈjulə/) is a college-preparatory, Modern Orthodox Jewish high school founded in 1979 by Rabbi Marvin Hier. It has no affiliation with Yeshiva University in New York City.
The school is financially independent of and separately incorporated from the Simon Wiesenthal Center, despite their juxtaposition.[5]
