PICTURE OF THE WEEK

ARTICLE OF THE WEEK

This week of school was short, but sweet. It's amazing what can be squeezed into just 3 days! Grades 6-8 started the Fall Trimester of Electives, which include Gym, Art, Krav Maga, Dance, Photography, Video Game Design, and many more fun and exciting options. Our younger students (grades N-4) experienced hands-on lulav and etrog workshops with Morah Vivian and Rabbi Menchel, and Rabbi Menchel also left our older students (grades 5-8) inspired and ready for the chag with special pre-sukkot "schmoozes". Have an enjoyable and meaningful Sukkot!

BOX TOPS FALL SUBMISSION DEADLINE

Thank you to everyone who's already helped to get us off to a fantastic start this year! After the Sukkot break we will have just one week left to submit collected tops for the Fall Submission Deadline, so make sure to submit receipts over the break via the Box Tops App or send them in to school after vacation and we'll take care of the rest with the physical ones.   Feel free to reach out to either of us if you have any questions and remember, whether digital or clipped, YOU'RE the tops.   Natalie & Phil Landsberg
