Israel
Shabbaton (cont...) (BACK
TO NEWSLETTER)
 The
program included Friday night tfilla at the Kotel,
an invigorating walk back to the Browns’ house
and meal that lasted ‘til late into the night.
Shabbat morning tfilla was at the renowned Beit Knesset
haGr”a in Shaarei Hessed followed by lunch and
learning. On Motzei Shabbat, there was a Melava Malka
with Pizza in a kumzitz-like atmosphere, with boys
reliving some of their Rambam experiences and sharing
their Israel experiences with each other and personal
shmoozing time with Rabbi Friedman.
Substantially all of our graduates continue in post-high
school learning programs, most at Yeshivot Eretz Yisrael.
Our graduates are actively recruited by these yeshivot,
where they are known for their learning skills, outstanding
midot and deep-rooted ahavat Eretz Yisrael. Our graduates
attend Yeshivot Hesder programs, such as Yeshivat
Har Etzion (Gush), Kerem B’Yavneh (KBY) and Shaalvim,
but also at American programs, such as Yeshivat Ohr
Yerushalayim (OJ) and Mevaseret Yerushalayim. Some
also attend Shana Bet institutions, such as Yeshivat
Torat Moshe (TOMO), Yeshivat Derech haTalmud (Rav Ilson)
and Yeshivat Mir. Following these programs, substantially
all of our students return to the States to
attend college.
