Memphis Jewish High School in Memphis, Tennessee, began operation in August 2006. It is a Modern-Orthodox Jewish co-educational school. It is a dual-curriculum Hebrew - English school founded by Andrew Groveman.

It uses the Harkness Table approach to teaching.

The school produces a monthly student-run newspaper, called The Kadima Khronicle, and has plans for similar publications such as a yearbook and literary magazine. Kadima, which is Hebrew for "moving forward," is MJHS's school motto. THe motto reflects what Groveman has in mind for the students' future, and education.
