The Israel Goldstein Youth Village of Hanoar Hatsioni, is a Jewish boarding school. The Campus is located in the heart of Jerusalem, it has beautiful grounds. The school’s remarkable 70-year history was established as a center/orphanage for children who had survived the Holocaust. In the winter of 1949, a boarding school was founded on what had been Monastery Hill in the San Simon area of Jerusalem. Its first students were 40 orphans who were brought by boat from Europe.
Today, the Goldstein Youth Village is home to 400 residential students, with 200 more bused in each day for classes and activities. The students, who are aged 12 – 18, are in grades 7 – 12. They can remain in the program until they graduate, when they must enter the military.
The school’s demographic history echoes the state’s immigration history. The 50’s and 60’s brought an influx of émigrés from Arab countries. Soon, the school became a melting pot for Jewish kids from all over the world. As immigration slowed in 1970, the administration realized that they had to take in Israeli-born children from development towns and other culturally deprived environments.
Although the school began as an agricultural village, in the 1970s it became a vocational training school. To help eradicate the cycle of poverty, it became imperative to teach the students trades so they could find employment. Students learn applied arts, home economics, hotel management, fashion design and many other fields of interest.
In 1990, the Village took in the first group of Russian children from an area near Chernobyl. Two years later, 50 students – some as young as eight-years-old - were airlifted from Sarajevo. The first wave of Ethiopian students entered the program in 1994.
In 1993, the first Na’Aleh group of 80 students from the FSU(Former Soviet Union) were brought to live at the Village. This program continues, with 80 new students coming in each year. The teens come to Israel without their parents, and most choose to remain in Israel. About thirty percent of their parents eventually make aliyah as well.
The addition of Russian students, who are academically oriented, necessitated a major change in curriculum. The school no longer offers vocational training. Today, high level academic courses are the norm and the school’s music program is universally acclaimed. I had the opportunity to meet and speak with several bright young Na’Aleh students, who came to Israel from Moscow, Ukraine and Kazakstan. They described their families, their interests and their reasons for coming to Israel. READ more visit the website https://www.israelyouthvillage.org/
