    Overview

    For over thirty years, our Beit Midrash has offered five weeks of immersive and intensive textual study, where students build both knowledge and friendship over a shared passion for intellectually engaged and spiritually rich Torah study.

    Students have the opportunity to learn with top educators and scholars and engage in serious study of Jewish texts beyond the scope of a high school classroom. They will develop the ability to analyze these essential texts, be challenged to ask questions and be active participants in thought-provoking discussions. In the evenings, students will have the opportunity to explore questions that speak to their personal interests. Afternoons, nights and weekends feature good old campy fun like bonfires, swimming, ropes course and field trips.
