Chicagoland Jewish High School
Machon Maayan 2008-2009
Why did you choose to attend Machon Maayan?
I chose to attend Machon Maayan because I saw no other option. I switched into Machon Maayan from Young Judea’s Israel program, Shalem, after only a month. I wasn’t happy on Shalem and I had a cousin at Machon Maayan. It seemed like a good choice!
Where are you now?
Now I live in Maaleh Adummin, Israel and live a very fulfilling life. I know it sounds mushy-gushy, but I actually mean that.
What was one of your favorite seminar/ tiyul?
I liked dancing on the boat in the Kinneret.
What was your favorite class?
My favorite class was Dina Etigson’s Chassidut class.
