Pathfinders Update: Researching to Pursue Medical Interests

Sophomore, Morris Shalom, in his Research Scrubs

On Sundays, Sophomore, Morris Shalom, volunteers at Coney Island Hospital. Mrs. Hanon and the Yeshivah of Flatbush Pathfinders Program helped him get this volunteer job in order to pursue his medical interests. Shalom regularly helps doctors conduct research on the latest medical breakthroughs. Shalom says, "I think this unique opportunity through the Pathfinders Program will help me reach my goal to become a doctor and help people in the future."

Yeshivah of Flatbush Joel Braverman High School Pathfinders Program: 
Beginning in 9th grade, the Pathfinders counselors work with each student to discuss their interests and develop their goals. Students are then given a wide range of opportunities of places where they can volunteer, intern and explore their unique academic pursuits and career ideas. Through the Yeshivah of Flatbush Pathfinders Program, we encourage our students to discover and expand their special talents and abilities and explore career options for the future. Whether a student is actively engaged during the school year or in the summer, we are confident that each Yeshivah of Flatbush student will find a path to success.
