This covers all activities, transportation, lodging, and most food. It is recommended that students bring a modest amount of spending money for a few snacks or meal choice times (out at a market, for example) and any souvenirs. The amount is up to each family to decide. We will help them exchange it but we expect students to be responsible for any money they bring.

Right now, the USD is quite strong so a little will go a long way.

The price Kehillah families pay for a grade-level trip does not fully cover the cost to the school. One of the many things our Kehillah Fund (KFund) helps to support is our school trip program. If you would like to contribute to the KFund with this in mind, please contact Eric Weller, Director of Advancement. If you would like to underwrite a portion of grade-level trips, please contact Rabbi Dennis Eisner, Major Gifts.

While we expect every student to travel with their grade, we understand that there are sometimes mitigating circumstances that do not allow a student to travel. For those students, there is a required experiential education program based out of Kehillah’s campus.
