Color War was incredible! You felt the ruach and the school pride in the air as you walked through the halls of TABC! The talent exhibited this year was off the charts! Between Minute to Win It, Spelling Bees, Divrei Torah, chess games, hockey games, College Bowl and Torah Bowl competitions, STEM projects, dodge-ball, Password, European handball, sports showcases, basketball, room decorations, videos, banner, songs and stomps, everyone had a chance not only to get involved, but to shine! The teams were based on the seasons: Freshmen were winter/blue. Sophomores were white/ fall. Juniors were green/ spring. Seniors were red/ summer. Mazal tov to the seniors on their well-deserved victory! Click

Rock-paper-scissors overtook Romeo and Juliet's fight scene this year as TABC stormed Envision Shakespeare with a fantastic cast, including Best Supporting Actor Netzach Schuman, Co-Captain Moshe Gutfreund, Daniel Rothstein, Rami Levy, Moshe Dergel, Ben Basseches, Mikey Schwartz, and Itai Hudes. Many excited TABC "extras" also attended the event, creating a lot more Shakespearean
ruach
(and bodies on stage to create the crowd scenes). Great job to our TABC actors! Romeo and Juliet never seemed less tragic.

Y14 & Y16 Celebrate Siyum on
Sefer Melachim Aleph
|
Rabbi First's Navi classes celebrated a significant milestone in their learning this week. After seven months of beautiful learning and discussion, they finally completed Sefer Melachim Aleph. To celebrate the occasion, they munched on Dunkin Donuts while playing a specially made Melachim version of Pictionary and Charades. It was a great chance for them to review many of the ideas, stories and characters that came up in the sefer, and lots of fun for all!

 This past Tuesday over 25 high school college counselors who are part of CAJUE (Counselor Advocacy for the Jewish University Experience) came to TABC for a meeting. The meeting was an opportunity to share ideas and experiences that will enhance the college counseling experience in all of our schools. The TABC College Guidance Department has been proud to be part of this organization and was proud to host their largest meeting of the year.

Rabbi Brander Addresses Y17
|
One of the best shiurim I ever heard! This was the reaction of every Y17 talmid who had the privilege of hearing Rav Asher Brander of Los Angeles deliver a shiur on "Who We Are - Learning Life from Haman". Rav Brander discussed why Bechira Chofshit, free will, is the most fundamentally important aspect of our lives and how we should exercise our free will to choose to be happy. Haman, Rav Asher pointed out, is the opposite paradigm. Haman had every reason to be happy but chose to be miserable.
Rabbi Brander was visibly moved by the highly intelligent comments and insights from the TABC talmidim and remarked how incredibly impressed he was!
We thank Rabbi Jachter who seized on the opportunity to bring Rav Brander to speak at TABC when Rav Brander's nephew Eli Schloss '19 informed him that Rav Brander was in town for a family Simcha. Special note of thank you as well to Avi Proctor '19 whose grandmother is a member of Rabbi Brander's congregation in Los Angeles.

2019/5779 is the fifth year in which Rabbi Jachter has led a Sephardic minyan at TABC. The relatively large number of Sephardic freshmen accounts for this being the first year we sustain a twice weekly Sephardic minyan. This past Friday for the first time we conducted a Sephardic minyan on Rosh Hodesh replete with kriat haTorah and twice reciting Birkat Kohanim ("duchenen").
Rabbi Jachter led the tefillah and read from the Torah. All the while, Rabbi Jachter had the opportunity to teach the talmidim some of the distinguishing Sephardic practices such as no bracha on Hallel for Rosh Hodesh (except for North African Sepharadim) and hagbahat haTorah before kriat haTorah.
One memorable moment was when a student of North African Jewish background was taught to recite "Emet Toroteinu HaKedosha" before reciting the Bracha after his aliyah, in accordance with his family custom. It is so wonderful for TABC to be able to fully service all of its talmidim in their wide diversity.
