We are overjoyed to introduce a new overnight travel experience for our fifth graders this spring. On this very special trip, fifth graders will travel to Northeast Georgia for an overnight Shabbat, social action and social trip. Beginning with their first overnight hotel stay, fifth graders will celebrate Erev Shabbat through music, games, and programming. On Saturday morning they will wake up for a social action project in the area, and end the day at a local amusement center.
