JETS celebrated the many accomplishments of its students and graduates, as well as the ordination of 17 Smicha students, at its June Banquet.

Seeing how much you’ve all grown, found business success, and started building your own families has filled all of our hearts with endless pride. We are so happy about your success and pray to G-d that all your dreams should come true.

Over the past 36 hours, more than 650 friends and supporters have united and helped us raise $250,000 in the JETS Pay It Forward Campaign. We could never have done it without you. Thank you!

For a young man, knowing he has the ability to support his family can alleviate stress and lift the burden from his shoulders. He has the freedom to pursue a career that is meaningful and lucrative. He can give back to the community and live a life of dignity and purpose.

Purim is all about “venahafoch hu,” the notion of things being turned on their heads. It was this time last year that the world as we knew it was turned on its head, and the Covid-19 world became the new normal.

We are happy to announce that Rabbi Shmuel Schneerson, co-director of the hugely successful summer program Yeshivas Kayitz Yerushalayim, will be joining JETS staff as a full-time teacher and mashpia. Rabbi Schneerson, who holds an M.A. in Psychology and Marriage and Family Therapy and a certificate from the Victor Frankel Institute of Logotherapy, is uniquely positioned to further JETS’ mission of combining Torah learning with real-world application.

We are excited to share that JETS alumnus Sam Liberow was recently featured in the Jewish Journal, one of the largest Jewish news outlets in the United States.

We are excited to announce that, G-d willing, JETS will be opening it’s doors for the next academic year on August 25th, 2020.

Back in February, JETS invited a dozen local Jewish schools to a Yom Hashoah memorial ceremony that was scheduled to take place today.

In these uncertain times, we’re all feeling vulnerable and insecure. Yet it’s important to remember that this is also a meaningful time.
