Am V’Ometz: Building Jewish Confidence Conference
Presented by Machon ...Siach at SAR High School and American Jewish Committee (AJC)

The Am V’Ometz: Building Jewish Confidence conference was a landmark event designed to empower our students and reinforce their confidence in their Jewish identity through education, skill-building, and meaningful dialogue. The conference brought together experts, from AJC's Center for Education Advocacy, community leaders, and SAR alumni activists to guide students on this important journey.

Students had the opportunity to engage in a series of sessions and hands-on workshops, diving deep into Jewish history and identity while developing essential advocacy skills like public speaking, editorial writing, and alliance-building.

A major highlight was the keynote conversation with Rabbi Tully Harcsztark, Founding Principal of SAR High School and Dean of Machon Siach, and American Jewish Committee (AJC) CEO, Ted Deutch. Together, they explored the current challenges and opportunities facing Jewish students today. Watch the keynote conversation here: https://youtu.be/3WbdY8txJAI

In a special effort to foster connections beyond SAR, Jewish students from Ethical Culture Fieldston School, Riverdale Country Day, and Horace Mann joined our 11th and 12th grade student ambassadors. The shared lunch and interactive programming helped unite students and inspire Jewish pride.

Rabbi Tully Harcsztark shared, "This conference was a crucial opportunity for our students to strengthen their Jewish identity and learn how to actively engage in advocacy. Partnering with AJC allowed us to provide them with the tools and confidence to proudly represent and support the Jewish community."
