Ort Itzhak Rabin Gan Yavne (Hebrew: אורט רבין גן יבנה, formerly referred to as Ort Gan Yavne, and as Kiryat Hinuch Rabin) is a pluralistic secular Jewish high school and junior high school in Gan Yavne, Israel. It was founded in 1995 as the first high school in the town of Gan Yavne, after years students from the town studied in the relatively close town of Gedera. It was named after the late Prime Minister of Israel, Yitzhak Rabin. The students are mostly from Gan Yavne, but some come from the nearby moshav Bitzaron. The school has high rates of Bagrut graduates and fairly high Israel Defense Forces recruitments stat. It has the following division into classes: Computer Programming (including Cyber security), Biology (with the opportunity of expanding it with one of the following: Jewish thought, Arts, Geography, Theater & Journalism), Biotechnology and Humanities (Psychology). Besides Hebrew language classes, the school also offers Arabic which is studied as a foreign language alongside the mandatory English language (the school is one of the few that teaches 7 units level Bagrut in English). The school's football field was more than doubled in size in construction works that started in November 2005 and were finished in October 2006. The nearby open field north of the basketball & volleyball arena was turned into a 2nd parking lot and was added to the school's property during 2009. The school's Junior High building's classes are used as a voting booths during national and local elections. As of 2010, the school has a robotics team who achieved worldwide prizes in FIRST Robotics Competition. The school's auditorium has also been used in Shabbat as the local small community of Reform Jews' Synagogue. The school's basketball arena was also used by the local basketball team Hapoel Gan Yavne that played in the Liga Bet minor league's southern division. Since 2008, there is a second ORT Israel junior high school (and high school) in Gan Yavne; Although, the second one is named "Ort Naomi Shemer", after the late Israeli poet Naomi Shemer. In 2013 a local Police Department was built in the area next to the Junior High. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the northern parking lot (rebuilt in late 2019) was declared a Coronavirus testing area on October 27, 2020.
