Although by then New Orleans' Jewish population exceeded its pre-Katrina size, demographic changes negatively affected the school's population. The same demographic changes affected Beth Israel; its Saturday morning service only attracted around 40 worshipers, its Friday night service only 25, and it had no daily <i><a href="/wiki/Minyan" title="Minyan">minyan</a></i>.<sup id="cite_ref-Heilman2013_47-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Heilman2013-47"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>47<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> In 2012 the school's board opened its doors to more non-Jewish students and changed the name from New Orleans Jewish Day School to Community Day School, but enrollment continued to fall to 29 students, half non-Jewish, by 2013. </p><p>In 2013 Beth Israel hired Gabriel Greenberg to succeed Topolosky as rabbi, though he could not join the synagogue until the following year.

The Day School rediscovered its identity, for example. With a recommitment to its Jewish mission, the renamed-once-more Jewish Community Day School saw renewed interest from Jewish families under the leadership of Head of School Sharon Pollin. When Dr. Pollin left in 2019, enrollment had reached 66 students, and with the expansion of JCDS's Green Preschool, the school reached an enrollment of 76 students in the spring of 2020 under new head and New Orleans native Dr. Brad Philipson. The school is now approximately 80% Jewish and is expected exceeded its pre-Katrina enrollment by the fall of 2020. As of the fall of 2022, enrollment stands at a record 106 students and is expected to continue to climb. Much of this success is owed to the active involvement of the Beth Israel rabbis. </p><p>A loyal friend to the Day School and beloved at Beth Israel, Rabbi Gabe left New Orleans in 2019. He was replaced by the newly ordained Rabbi Josh Pernick. A thoughtful scholar with an ability to connect to young and old, Rabbi Josh was immediately successful at Beth Israel, and he did so with the support of the jack-of-all-trades synagogue administrator, Rabbi David Posternock. Both Rabbis were active in the Day School and played a pivotal role in the vibrant Jewish life along the West Esplanade Avenue corridor in Metairie. In 2022, Rabbi Pernick left to return to the Northeast, and Rabbi Posternock shifted his professional duties to Jewish Family Services while remaining an active member and volunteer at Beth Israel. That summer, Beth Israel welcomed Rabbi Phil Kaplan, another YCT graduate, to its helm. Rabbi Kaplan joined Beth Israel from a congregational post in Australia. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Notes">Notes</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span
