Special Programs

Co-curricular activities and events are an integral part of the educational environment at Ramaz. We have created a program that includes a wide range of informal educational programming to meet the varied interests of our student body and to promote the educational goals and philosophy of the school.

Many of these activities take place outside the school building and entail additional costs. For the larger scale activities, beyond the scope of the student activities fee, parents are asked to help defray the cost of these vital programs. The school makes every effort to enable all students to participate in these important, inspirational programs.

SHABBATON

Shabbaton is designed to help students develop relationships both with their peers and faculty in the beautiful setting that Shabbat creates. The special environment impacts students in significant ways.

CHAGIGOT 

The Ramaz G.O., in conjunction with the Parents Council, sponsors chagigot to celebrate the chagim in a festive, and spiritual context. 

CULTURAL AND THEATER NIGHTS AND CLASS EVENINGS

Throughout the year, varied cultural and social evenings are sponsored by the Ramaz G.O. and specific academic departments as well as the Parents Council.
