Kickstart Program: A Path to Success for Youth at Risk

Every child deserves the chance to succeed. At Kfar Galim, our Kickstart Program is designed to provide youth at risk the first feeling of success through providing tools, support, and confidence they need to overcome challenges and thrive. This holistic program combines academic support, emotional care, and enriching activities to address the unique needs of each participant.

Program Overview

The Kickstart Program is a 6-8-month journey that helps students build resilience and close gaps in their education and personal development. Key components include:

  • Emotional Support: Weekly one-on-one sessions with a social worker to address personal challenges and build emotional strength.
  • Remedial Education: Three sessions per week in our learning center to help students reduce academic gaps and catch up with their peers.
  • Extracurricular Activities: A minimum of one weekly activity, such as sports, art, or music, to foster creativity, teamwork, and self-expression.

The Impact

  • Improved Academic Performance: Tailored learning plans help students regain confidence in their abilities.
  • Enhanced Emotional Well-being: Ongoing support ensures students have a safe space to process emotions and develop coping mechanisms.
  • Holistic Development: Extracurricular activities provide opportunities to discover talents, build friendships, and develop life skills.

Be the Difference

Kfar Galim is a vibrant multi-cultural educational institution and boarding school established in 1952, offering unique study programs while maintaining a strong connection to the values of labor and agriculture. The Kfar Galim Regional High School serves 1786 pupils from the communities of the Hof HaCarmel Regional Council and has a boarding program for 332 pupils from across the country.

 The majority of the boarding school students aged 12-18 come from disadvantaged backgrounds, struggling immigrant families or are Naale students from the FSU and Ukraine. Many of these vulnerable youth face hardships and crises resulting from immigration or strained and complicated family situations. They struggle with motivational and self-esteem issues and have a history of underperformance. Kfar Galim believes in providing equal opportunities and promotes a positive mindset and achievement culture to prepare these teens to lead productive lives while fulfilling their individual potential and becoming independent adults and contributing citizens.

 In the spirit of excellence, we support our students in obtaining a matriculation certificate, steer them towards STEAM subjects, engage them in community activities and provide a wealth of informal programming to encourage them to discover their talents and new fields of interest.
