Happy 5780 school year! We are excited to meet our returning and new students this coming Sunday, September 15th. We would like to invite you, the parents, to a short meeting in which we will present our new system of assessing each student's progress in Hebrew. The meeting will be in Myers Hall at 9 am.

It is very important that you attend this meeting. We will instruct you how to support your child's learning process. Even if you do not know the prayers well, you should still take part in an enjoyable and empowering experience.

Due to massive flooding and damage in many neighborhoods in the wake of the storm, we have made the difficult decision to cancel Beit Sefer Shalom this Sunday, September 8th.

This Sunday our students had the unique experience of participating in our genizah burial ceremony. As we buried our sacred texts that were no longer used, the only proper way to dispose of them, we learned about holiness in our books and in our lives. Great educational program!
