Yeshivas Menachem in Kingston, Pennsylvania, is opening an Hachana L’Mesivta class for Bar Mitzvah-age Chabad bochurim, ages 13-14.
This opportunity is available strictly for Bochurim ages 13-14 who are seeking a Yeshivah in which they can study diligently and flourish spiritually with appropriate guidance.
Rabbi Toim Yahel serves as Rosh Yeshiva and Maggid Shiur of the Yeshiva. Rabbi Yahel is widely celebrated as an exceptionally dedicated teacher who has seen remarkable success in guiding his students to develop their scholastic abilities. His students are known to be able to apply the skills given to them to pursue their Torah studies with genuine passion and joy.
Rabbi Itzick Yarmush will serve as Menahel and Maggid Shiur of the Yeshiva. Rabbi Yarmush with his personable manner, engaging personality and dedication will guide the students in developing a love for Torah and Chassidus, the skills to learn and the ability to apply those skills as the Bochur advances in learning.
Shiurim are delivered in English, classroom size is limited to 18 Bochurim and the curriculum includes: Chassidus, Gemara, Rashi and Tosefos – with a Girsa track (tools to understand and grasp the Gemara on a basic level) and an Iyun track (insight and methodology to understand the Gemara on a deeper more rational level) Yiddish and Lashon HaKodesh languages (as a subject).
The Yeshiva works diligently to impart a healthy sense of Derech Eretz, to inspire positive attitudes towards Yiddishkeit and Chassidishkeit, and to motivate an eagerness to serve Hashem in the spirit of our Chabad Rabbeim.
Studies and lectures are held in the beautifully renovated Beis Tzvi Yosef, and students lodge at the homes of local Chabad families
The Yeshivah appreciates that K’achilaschem Kein Toiraschem, the quality of food directly effects the quality of Torah study
The Yeshiva is pleased to serve the highest quality food, prepared by “Kingston Kosher” catering.
The school year continues uninterrupted through the summer months, as per the desire of the Rebbe. During the summer months, the Yeshivah continues its studies at its location until after Tish’a B’av.
The Yeshiva will then relocate for 20 days to the various Mikomos HaKedoishim in Ukraine and Eretz Yisroel. The Yeshivah takes its students on monthly excursions and Shabbatons to Chasiddishe destinations, such as the Ohel and selected Shluchim.

Yes,,,,,,,,, certainly “changing” right before our eyes
I agree he’s a true yirei Shomayim and mentch who has a transformative effect on bachurim.
A great yashar koach must also go to Rabbi Url Pearlman who put his heart and soul into the development of the community and the bachurim for two decades. Thereare many families in Lubavitch today who owe their lives to Rabbi Uri.
Kingston is changing before our eyes..
with Rabbis yahel and Rabbi Yarmush -sounds like a very good oppertunity for a bochur.
I met Rabbi Yahel when he was here in California. What a mensch!…and what a Talmud Chacham…Best wishes to him and continued success!
For that person posting comment they don’t like the idea- then it’s not for you! That’s why there are B”H many yeshivas to choose from, and this is offering something specific. Always need some criticizing I guess…
it doesn’t have to be the same yeshiva all year in the same urban location with no other outlets during the day. This yeshiva looks like a great way to get out of the old routine without the tremendous loss of Torah that comes from being in camp for so long…
every bochur is lucky to have rabbi Yarmush as his maggid shiur
ur biggest fan
Rabbi Yarmush is such an amazing person, he has such much energy and clarity in his delivery, besides being brilliant and very knowledgeable, anybody learning in this yeshiva is very lucky.
Hatlocha Rebbe!
A dedicated, earnest, sincere, and motivated Yid!
My son is in a year round Yeshivah and we all couldn’t be happier
To much Torah is no good? Do we need a “little” vacation from learning Torah? R”L.
I look forward to hearing great things about this yeshiva. Rabbi Yarmush will have a positive impact on the bochurim
wonderful community
students end forgetting much of what they learned in school after such a long vacation. It is not like this in the yeshiva world…their camps are mostly about the learning, not playing all day for weeks and they love it because they actually know how to learn
Having yeshiva year round is does not always turn out well for the bochurim, and will lots of times overdo them. A better idea would just be to have a summer program from Hei Tammuz/End of June in the Ukraine. Too much isn’t good.
wow! this yeshiva is so lucky to have such a rosh yeshiva! a very special person, we are wish him hatzlacha!
