History
Goldstein Youth Village, 1950

Havat HaNoar HaTzioni was established in 1949 as a home for 40 Jewish orphans who lost their families in the Holocaust. It was named for Israel Goldstein, a prominent rabbi and Zionist leader. Today the school has over 500 students, many of them new immigrants.[1]

In the summers, Havat HaNoar HaTzioni is one of the home bases of the Ramah Israel Seminar, a program affiliated with Camp Ramah, a network of Jewish summer camps in North America.[2]

Programs

Jerusalem American International School is located in the youth village.[3]

The Lycée Havat-Hanoar-Hatsioni, a French international school, is affiliated with the youth village. Its terminale (final year of senior high school) classes were created in 1967/1968 by two groups: Nathanya by Léon Ashkénazi and Alyat Hanoar in Nazareth. These groups merged during the 1975–1976 school year.[4] This school integrated with the youth village since 1991.[5] It includes boarding facilities.[6]

Tichon Ramah Yerushalayim (TRY), Ramah Israel's semester abroad high school program, is located on the North end of the campus, along with the Ramah Israel offices.
