This unique trip takes teens around the age of 16 or 17 and has them live on a High School campus in Israel for three weeks during the summer. Participants spend some of the days learning about the history of Israel as well as current politics. Other days are spent traveling to northern Israel, Haifa, or down south to Jerusalem and using the country as a classroom. Students are able to learn the generations and meaning behind the Jewish people's homeland and also give back by planting trees and cleaning up parks and beaches.
