"A new national opportunity for #Jewish #highschools to build the next generation of leaders will open May 13, as #YeshivaUniversity invites mission-aligned #schools across #NorthAmerica to apply to join its #GruenFellows Program-a transformative initiative designed to strengthen Jewish #education, broaden access and cultivate students grounded in #Torah values and #academic excellence.

“The Gruen Fellows Program is a bold investment in the future of our #schools and our community,” said #Rabbi #AriBerman, Ph.D., president of Yeshiva University. “By partnering with high schools across the country, we are building a network of students who are intellectually ambitious, deeply rooted in core #Torahvalues and prepared to lead with clarity, purpose and a strong sense of responsibility for the Jewish people and the world.”

Students will still learn together in shared spaces guided by teachers, but new technologies such as immersive simulations, interactive environments, and virtual field trips may expand how lessons are experienced.
