The Alexander Muss Institute for Israel Education (AMIIE) commissioned the Jewish Education Service of North America (JESNA) to conduct an Impact Evaluation to determine whether the Alexander Muss High School in Israel (AMHSI) program is as powerful as we believed. Those surveyed among our alumni indicated a broad spectrum from recent graduates to those in their 40's who are now beginning to send their own teenagers to AMHSI. Educators, community leaders and alumni parents were also called upon to give their input. (For a copy of the four-page Executive Summary or the full 60-page comprehensive AMHSI Evaluation written by JESNA, please contact us.) "Coming to Israel for two months during my junior year of high school for AMHSI was inspiring and life changing. It set me on a course of Jewish community involvement and pro-Israel advocacy that I have been on ever since." -New White House Liaison to the Jewish Community, Scott Arogeti. July, 2008. Scott has served at the White House for over two and a half years and recently accompanied the President on his trip to celebrate Israel's 60th anniversary.
