While all Never Is Now programming is appropriate for high school students, in 2024 high school students and educators registered for the High School Student Track for an exclusive experience. This event was at no cost to educators and students. Students attended panels, participated in an exclusive ADL-led workshop, build connections with teens from other schools, debriefed in student-centered discussions and explored their role in challenging antisemitism and championing justice in their communities. Centered on topics raised in other Never Is Now sessions and panels, students worked with their peers and ADL facilitators to construct strategies for applying the learning to their own lives, their schools and the world around them. Chaperoning educators received a resource guide to prepare their students for the experience and continue the learning beyond the Never Is Now Summit.
