Yeshiva Gedola Of Carteret

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Yeshiva Gedola of Carteret (Hebrew: ¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿) informally, YGOC, is a yeshiva (rabbinic training school) located in Carteret, New Jersey. The yeshiva gives Talmudic students at the post-high school level the opportunity to continue their religious studies in an isolated setting, away from the busy - and potentially distracting - hustle and bustle of much larger cities. Founded by Rabbi Azriel Brown and Rabbi Yaakov Mayer in 2006, it has experienced growth; attracting students from cities across North America. The location of Carteret, New Jersey was chosen largely due to its proximity to the Orthodox Jewish population centers in New York, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, and Maryland. YGOC's campus, located on Noe Street, includes a main building that contains a study hall, classrooms, a dining hall, a kitchen and offices, as well as additional buildings that serve as residential quarters. The main building formerly functioned as the local Jewish Community Center (JCC) for the Carteret Jewish community.
