iNfuse: Day Schools

Our work with Jewish day schools is called iNfuse, in the hopes that schools will find ways to infuse Israel throughout school life. By deepening and aligning Israel learning and engagement in the classroom and on the playground, a deeper bond forms between the school and Israel.  This systemic integration enables learners, staff, and parents to build personal, enduring connections to Israel and its people.

Our goal is to support Jewish day schools as they weave Israel into school culture, physical space, in every classroom and in all-school and beyond-the-classroom activities, including Israel travel. Experienced iCenter consultants are available to day schools as they work to articulate and align their mission and goals regarding Israel education throughout school life. Our consultants support faculty, administration, and learners in building personal, enduring connections to Israel and the Israeli people through a broad range of curricular and extracurricular activities.

iCenter consultants recognize the fast-paced and unique nature of each day school. We invite schools to access iCenter expertise in a variety of ways:
