Hebrew Academy of Long Beach (HALB) is a Modern Orthodox Jewish day school located on the South Shore of Long Island in New York. Its founding principal was Rabbi Armin H.

It contains five schools:
- Lev Chana Preschool (preschool and kindergarten) in Hewlett Bay Park
- HALB Elementary School (Grades 1–8) previously in Long Beach and now in Woodmere

- DRS- Davis Renov Stahler Yeshiva High School for Boys in Woodmere
- Yeshivat Lev Shlomo- for post-high school students who wish to continue their Jewish education. Located in the DRS building.
The HALB Elementary School and DRS buildings also serve as a Jewish day camp in the summer called Avnet.[2] Avnet runs on Monday through Friday.
HALB Elementary School moved into the building where School Number Six was previously located during March of the 2016–17 school year.[3]
