The school is one of a series of pluralistic (community) Jewish day schools in the United States at the high school level. In the fall of 2005, the school moved from its original location in San Jose to its new campus at 3900 Fabian Way, Palo Alto, where it also hosted the Keddem Congregation (Reconstructionist Judaism) for several years.

Rabbi Reuven Greenvald joined Kehillah as its Head of School in the summer of 2004 and left in March 2007.
