Pelekh ( _he. פלך, lit. "Spindle") is a kibbutz in northern Israel. Located in the Lower Galilee near Karmiel, it falls under the jurisdiction of Misgav Regional Council.

The village was founded in 1982 by a gar'in of Hashomer Hatzair members.

Pelech Girls School

Pelech is also a high school for religious girls in Jerusalem. The school marked its 40th anniversary in 2006. It was founded by Rabbi Shalom Rosenbluth and his wife Penina as an alternative to the Beit Yaacov girls' educational system but was banned by the Haredi establishment soon after its establishment. In 1975, Alice Shalvi, a British-born professor at Hebrew University of Jerusalem became the principal. Her intervention is credited with turning the school into one of Jerusalem's most prestigious high schools. [http://www.etni.org.il/news/pelech.htm]
