When the war started the school was closed and Sea Army center was there during the war and after war time. In 1991 the school was opened again.

Current Headmaster: Mihhail Beilinson (until 21.06.2009)

About 30 teachers are working in this school +1 teacher of Hebrew who is being sent from Israel. Every year school is being renovated, but since building is very old, there is a lot of problems with main constructions. Country can't give money to school because it is property of Jewish Community in Estonia.
