Join CBI staff for a coastal Shabbaton! Rain or shine (or both… within the same half hour… this is the Oregon coast after all), students will enjoy games, treks, and build community at a beautiful house by the sea. This weekend away from it all will give students a chance to solidify friendships beyond our campus and be a fun sneak peek at all the excitement and adventure that CBI travel can offer in their high school years.

Along the way, they’ll enjoy the energy of places like Venice Beach and Hollywood while exploring what justice, identity, and community look like in real life.

L’Taken in Washington, D.C
for 10^th Grade
Friday, January 23 – Monday, January 26
$1,800; registration link coming shortly

CBI sophomores put their values into action at this decades-old retreat in our nation’s capital. This trip goes beyond the tourist sites (though we hit those too), empowering teens advocate for the issues that truly matter to them, including Israel, the environment, reproductive rights, LGBTQ civil rights, church/state separation, international relations and more. This is an integral part of the Confirmation class and experience for all 10th graders.

This trip will cost $1,800 per person.

Environmental Justice in the Bay Area
For 11^th and 12^th Grades
Friday, February 6- Sunday, February 8
$1,800; click to register

A three-day journey through Northern California explores where environmental justice, Indigenous land stewardship, and sustainable food systems converge. Students engage directly with the land—restoring habitats, supporting wildlife conservation, and learning from Indigenous leaders reclaiming and protecting ancestral territory. Guided hikes, farm-based learning, and community conversations reveal how environmental policy intersects with systemic inequality, and how food justice fuels cultural survival. Rooted in Jewish values and a shared commitment to justice, this immersive experience deepens understanding of the ties between people, land, and sustainability—and sparks action toward a more equitable future.
