USY is our high school youth group. USY is an international youth organization and Wayne USY is a chapter that is part of Hagalil, the Northern New Jersey Region. Wayne's USY chapter has been growing every year and has a wonderful reputation in the region for the quality of its programs and its members. USY has a very full calendar of events that cover all aspects of its program; social, social action, Israel, religious and Tzedakah. The chapter meets twice a month at the synagogue and there is generally a regional dance or convention each month for the USY members as well. Attending Regional activities enables USYers to make friends with other Jewish High School students from all over NJ. Many USYers attend the International convention each December and participate in the USY summer programs which solidifies their connection to a much larger Jewish community. USY provides a terrific opportunity for Jewish teens to interact with each other, and for them to learn leadership skills, develop lifelong friendships and share their connection to Judaism and Israel.
