Our Shabbatonim give students the opportunity to engage in the school community through meaningful session materials, exciting activities, and bonding with friends and faculty. Our Shabbaton model represents our Experiential Education mantra at its finest – a fusion of intentional and fun programming, coupled by warmth and enthusiasm. In addition to our annual School-Wide Shabbaton, each grade enjoys an individual Grade Shabbaton that takes place in some of our feeder neighborhoods.
