"Mr Elliot Wolf had a way of inspiring students, particularly the wilder ones like me to channel that energy into studies and future goals. Even though Mr Wolf could discipline us with the caning method, a far more effective method was to spend some time correcting our missteps and staying involved though our achievements. Even though I did not matriculate with Latin, Mr Wolf’s extra lessons helped me by improving my grades and confidence early in high school. I can honestly tell you, that there is not a hospital in the USA, Canada, UK, Australia and Israel that does not have ex-Davidians as high-ranking members. All of them will attribute their success to their families, the happy days of King David Schools under the leadership of Elliot Wolf and Jeffrey Wolf"
