Certain data were not available from all schools. ATLANTA JEWISH FEDERATION VACS Survey In August, several members of the Ad Hoc Committee on Services to Young Adults conducted a survey of students from the Atlanta area, most of whom attend college out of town but who return to Atlanta in the summer and during school breaks. Seventy-one students responded. The object of the survey was threefold: 1) to learn how these students are spending their time while in Atlanta; 2) to find out whether they are interested in participating in programs and activities sponsored by the Jewish community; and 3) to learn what programs and activities would be on interest to them. The results of the survey are relevant to our s tudy in that they address t he question of whet her the or ganized Jewish community should be offering servi ces to this group in the summer and during winter and spring br eaks. The information collect ed which addresses t he respondants' areas of interest wil l be valuable to those agencies and organizations in the community which may decide to serve this group. The following i nformation represents some of what we learned from the survey : Main Activity while in Atlanta More than 80% (n=57) of the respondants said t heir main activity in the s ummer was "work". Only 17% (n=l2) responded that attending s ummer school was the ir main act ivity. The remainder described time spent wi th family and at leisure as their main activity. During the winter break, only 35% (n=25) of the student worked. Most described their mai n activity as family and leisure time, including some who worked. The spring break varied from school t o school, but only 10% (n=7) of those intereviewed worked during spring break. "Make New Friends But Keep the Old" More than 2/3 of the respondents were interested in meeting new people, while slightly under 2/ 3 wanted to spend time with old friends .

    Contact: Lisa Colton Chief Learning Officer, See3 Communications President, Darim Online (434) 260.0177 [email protected] For Immediate Release NEW COHORT LAUNCHES THE 2013-2014 JEWISH DAY SCHOOL SOCIAL MEDIA ACADEMY November 18, 2013 This fall the third cohort of the Jewish Day School Social Media Academy has begun their journey to advance their strategic use of social media in areas such as communication, marketing, community building, alumni relations and development. See3 Communications / Darim Online is thrilled to partner with The AVI CHAI Foundation and Big Duck once again to produce this intensive program. This year's cohort of 15 schools was selected after a rigorous application process to determine schools' readiness for the program and their areas of interest for their social media projects. The schools span geography, size, denomination and experience with social media, but all are seeking to mature their operations, and have demonstrated willingness to take important risks to move themselves and their communities forward. Some are just beginning their social media journey. Others have been developing their work for some time, and are seeking to take their work to the next level. This will be the third cohort of the Academy. The first year was a pilot group of 10 schools in the New York and New Jersey areas. The second cohort of 20 schools across the country excelled last year and created important momentum for the field. "This year's cohort is a powerful list of top schools around the country that are thinking big and marked by excellence in everything that they do," said Colton.
