Partnership2Gether (P2G) creates a living bridge between us, other southern communities and the Hadera-Eiron region of Israel. For us in Greensboro, that means peer to peer programs for young leaders, cultural exchanges, customized touring and home hospitality in the region for anyone that visits Israel, teen exchanges, and educational programming that connects teachers and students between the two communities. The impact of these projects goes far beyond the community level — each of us has the opportunity to become directly and personally involved.

“It was a unique trip that provided us a lot to think about as we returned. We visited schools and got to know teachers and educators from our partnership region. Continuing the people-to-people connections will ensure a better understanding of Jewish identity for both American and Israeli educators,” ~ Jason Cathcart.
"I was able to get to know the four Israeli teens with whom I worked well, despite the fact that we exclusively met and conversed over Zoom. I enjoyed learning about their hobbies and preferences and exercising my creative muscle to craft lessons that were tailored specifically to their needs and interests....Through English lessons, I was able to see my students’ worlds expand at a time when, thanks to the pandemic, daily activities and connection to others appear to be shrinking. I am proud to have been able to contribute to and expand the lives of my students..." ~ Alexa Schleien, teacher from Greensboro, NC
Before Pesach, students at B’nai Shalom Day School met their peers from Reut School, Menashe on Zoom. Students built their own chocolate houses, while spending virtual time together and seeing each other’s families, homes and classrooms.
