iNFUSE INITIATIVE WELCOMES 8 NEW SCHOOLS

To help more Jewish day schools infuse Israel into all aspects of school life and learning, The iCenter is welcoming eight new day schools across North America into the third cohort of its initiative, iNfuse: Israel in Jewish Day Schools. Each school will create a plan to make Israel education and experiences a deeper part of all aspects of school life, including classes such as science, the arts, Jewish studies, Hebrew language, all-school Israel engagement, and Israel travel.

The new schools are: Beth Emet Elementary School of Cooper City, FL; Carmel Academy of Greenwich, CT; Hebrew Day School of Ann Arbor; Hebrew Foundation School of Montreal; The Toronto Heschel School; Solomon Schechter Day School of Greater Hartford; and The Rashi School of Dedham, MA. They join 25 schools who have participated in the initiative in past years.

The initiative is funded in part by The AVI CHAI Foundation and through matching funds raised in the schools’ communities.
