Los Gatos students extended their horizons by gaining invaluable experience in foreign countries. One program available, High School in Israel, enabled the student to learn Jewish history first hand. Another program, Amigos de las Americas, was a caring health organization sent to Ecuador. Also, through the Calvary Baptist Church, students traveled to Haiti to share in building a schoolhouse. From April to June of 1984, Los Gatos se- nior Stuart Rauch and 40 other students from around the United States attended a program called High School in Israel. They traveled to Hod HaSharon, Israel, and lived in dorms with- in a boarding school for the three months they were there. While continuing their regular high school courses, the American students also learned Jewish history. Half the days were spent in the classroom. The students attended an intense Eve-hour study program in Jewish history, and another four hours were spent on Learning, Caring, and Sharing In a Foreign Country their regular courses, such as chemistry, trigo- nometry, and Spanish 4. Said Stuart, I was up late nights studying. The work was on a col- lege level and prepared me for college life. The other half of the time the students had field trips called tiyulim and attended classes at the places they visited. They went to places such as the Massada and Jerusalem to gain first hand experience of Jewish history. At the end of the three months, Stuart and the other American students had final exams in their regular courses, and had a ten hour final in Jewish history which counted as three units of college credit. Another program was a health organization called Amigos de las Americas. Five-hundred people from all over the United States, includ- ing Los Gatos senior Raja Chatterjee, went to South America for eight weeks during the summer of 1984. Raja went to Ecuador to immunize the people against yellow fever.

He lived with a family in Ecuador. Raja said he enjoyed, Helping the people, gaining medical experience, and gaining ex- perience in human relations. From December I5 to December 23, nine Los Gatos students and seven other students went to Haiti to enlarge the one-room school- house so more kids would be able to attend school. The students raised the money for the building by having a carwash and a servant day, and by selling cider, teeshirts, and cook- books. They stayed at a mission in Port-au- Prince, Haiti. Leanne Gibson, a junior at Los Gatos, said, The trip really made me see how much we have compared to them, and how much we can help them if we try. f ' V , W ' 'f Q K A - .- ' . .f . -' f , gf I. . gf y ,X f . - Y .1 I - ' . , Qj'f,-fp! gg' If-fx 5, ,Q . f 1 .5 I A, ,V 'I E ' I 1,3 :W V I .Aki 1f4r'4'I,fw-I-5i'I Q iv' ff? . ..
