By the start of World War II, there were twenty-one Jewish schools in Toronto, employing nearly one hundred teachers, giving instruction to nearly three thousand Jewish children, or forty per cent of the Jewish school-age population of the city. Since the war, as in Montreal, Jewish schools in Toronto have blossomed. The city has also seen the beginnings of a rabbinical seminary in the ''Yeshiva Torah Chaim'' founded by Rabbi Abraham Aaron Price. Born in Poland in 1900, Rabbi Price came to Canada and established his Yeshiva in 1937. He has published a number of important scholarly works in Hebrew and is regarded as a major Talmudic authority. Among the graduates of his are rabbis in the United States and Canada, including Gedaliah Felder, Albert Pappenheim, Erwin Schild of Toronto, Benjamin Hauer of Montreal, and Phillip Rosensweig of Kitchener. Rabbi Felder subsequently succeeded him as the Chief Rabbi of Toronto.
