LEARNING OUTSIDE THE CLASSROOM

Retreats

Learning Has No Boundaries

Everyone had a blast and, just as importantly, it brought everyone closer together as we started the Schechter School of Long Island’s fifty-second year.Pablo Garcia, SSLI Math Teacher

Retreats

Experiential education is at our core. Our students receive a dynamic education which gets reinforced and expanded beyond the classroom walls.

Through our yearly grade trips, grade Shabbatons, and the highly anticipated High School retreat, students develop strong bonds with each other and a greater sense of responsibility towards their school community. They come away from these experiences with an increased sense of independence, a deeper understanding of our country’s history, a sensitivity to environmental issues and deeper connection to Jewish tradition.
