Recently, USY cancelled its summer programs for the first time in sixty years due to the pandemic and safety concerns. That said, the USY team rolled up their sleeves and reimagined its summer experience as a virtual one, in #MyUSYfiSummer. There is a wide span of offerings for teens from grades 5-12 across North America over a six week period, all with a USY twist. There are also options for high school seniors who have graduated to participate. “We’ve brought so much of what USYers know and love about the USY experience to #MyUSYfiSummer,” explains Michelle Rich, Director of Teen Travel and International Engagement. “Our talented team has developed programs that teens and tweens can participate in from home. We’re also working with creative partners and organizations to elevate the overall experience.” #MyUSYfiSummer consists of two overall categories of programs, All-Access and Premium.
Program highlights include a songwriting class taught by Rabbi Josh Warshawsky, a course on Stand-Up Comedy, Jewish Values Through The Lens of Star Wars, Israeli Dancing, Social Justice and Debate discussions, Digital Illustration, and more. College preparedness classes are also being offered.
