To enhance the academic environment, tours are provided throughout the school year. School trips and outings are held in conformity with permission from the Israeli army. Armed guards accompany school trips as required by the regulations of the Army and Ministry of Education.
Advocacy and chessed opportunities are available, as well as extracurricular activities and self-study projects. Several Shabbatonim are held during the year in different communities throughout the country. In addition, Michlelet Esther provides a warm, caring environment that makes each student feel at home as soon as she walks through the school’s doors. A mature social atmosphere that fosters personal growth allows the open-minded student to grow at her own pace. A highly regarded support staff provides her with the life-skills that will help her through the maze of issues confronting a young adult.
Students with theatrical and creative talents have the opportunity to write, produce, and perform shows. As part of Michlelet Esther’s special chessed program, students are encouraged to do good deeds by serving poor people in a Jerusalem Soup Kitchen, volunteering their time to help needy families and to visit the sick and elderly. They distribute toys and fresh fruits to children and adult cancer patients in various hospitals in Jerusalem.
