The school’s Robotics Club is an example of this
improvement. In the past three years it has won 1st prize and 3rd prize in the
Ministry of Education’s national competition, co-sponsored by the
Technion, Israel Institute of Technology. Furthermore, 94% to 98% of the
school’s graduates achieved full matriculation for entrance to university in
the past five years consecutively.
“The
yeshiva’s crowning glory is that we produce ‘Bnei Torah’," said Rosh Yeshiva, Rabbi Shraga Fruechter. "We try to build their character with Torah values while at the same time helping them to achieve
excellence in the sciences and other disciplines.”
The mayor of Givat Shmuel, Yossi Barudni, added, “The
municipality has worked closely with the yeshiva in recent years to help the school serve
the sons of our town and achieve its mission: to train a new
generation of leaders, who love the Torah, their nation and their land.”
