Our Stories: "Sometimes it’s hard being an Arab in Israel. But growing up in a school like mine, you don't tag a person ‘Arab’ or ‘Jew.’ We’re all just people, and that’s how we see each other. Some of my best friends are Jewish." — Siwar, 11th grade. Read her story.

I decide every single day that I want to stay, but it's not an easy choice. I'm proud to be at this school, because it's more than just a school ... We don't want this to end with 12th grade. I'm not going to live my life like I never went to this school. It's a big part of who I am.
