ACADEMICS
GAON students enjoy a rigorous college prep program of General Studies, which are taught online in a blended learning style, using the StrongMind platform; and Judaic Studies, which are taught in a traditional way by the school's Rabbeim. We facilitate dual enrollment in community college classes, giving our students the opportunity to complete one-two years of college classes while still in high school. This method saves time for students and is financially responsible for parents. GA offers many extracurricular programs such as Sports, Drama, e-sports, Model UN, and Music. Some of the colleges that Harkham-GAON graduates attend/ed include the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign; University of Southern California; University of California Los Angeles; California State University Northridge; King's College, London, England; Yeshiva University; Stern College; and IDC Herzliya. Additionally, we assist and encourage our HGA graduates in arranging gap year programs in Israel.
