AJA was honored at the AIPAC's 2018 National Policy Conference as it was awarded the prestigious AIPAC National Early Engagement Exemplars Award. The award recognizes the high school leaders who have done the most to advance AIPAC’s mission over the past year.
​
The students AJA has sent to AIPAC events this year (see list below) have consistently impressed the AIPAC Early Engagement Team with their passion, their insights, and their overall excellence. It goes without saying that these students have built on the foundation laid by those AJA students who attended these same events in previous years.
Leadership Institute - Summer 2017 - Summer Pitocchelli and Natie Linsider
HS Summit - November 2017 - Abe Schoen, Eliana Goldin, Shani Kadosh,
Nathan Posner, and Hannah Solon
Leadership Institute - January 2018 - Maayan Starr and Leah Bader
​
National Policy Conference - Maayan Schoen (pictured at right) was one of only
three high school students (out of some 3,600 in attendance) to participate in a
panel discussion that focused on how to better engage high school students in AIPAC's
mission and activities.
