Mesorah High School for Girls is a private Orthodox Jewish high school for girls in Dallas, Texas.

Scheduled to open in August 2000[needs update] with grades 9 and 10, it was the first Jewish girls' high school in the city and the third all-girls' school in Dallas.[1] It is the only Jewish girls' high school in the Southwestern United States. It initially had seven students.[2]

As of 2000 the school uniforms include ankle-length skirts and long-sleeved shirts. The school teaches Jewish religious subjects and secular subjects.[2]
