Sukkot at TABC
SIMCHAT BEIT HASHOEVA ROUNDUP

Our rebbeim invited the students from their Gemara shiurim to celebrate a Simchat Beit HaShoeva in their sukkot over Chol HaMoed. A group of juniors and seniors also went with Rabbi Yablok, Mr. Poleyeff, and Rabbi Finkelstein to Boro Park to experience a Simchat Beit HaShoeva Tour. What wonderful, holy ways to celebrate Zman Simchateinu with TABC faculty. For more photos click here.


SIMCHAT TORAH AT TABC

For the fourth consecutive year, TABC was proud to provide a Simchat Torah evening for our talmidim. Well over 100 talmidim came to dance with their friends and faculty in the TABC Beit Midrash. The ruach in the room was electric as our Yeshiva celebrated Simchat Torah with genuine enthusiasm. Students enjoyed shiurim from their rebbeim between mincha and and maariv before hakafot. Additionally, a festive BBQ was provided after Hakafot as everybody enjoyed a seudat Yom Tov together. TABC is thrilled to provide an opportunity for our talmidim to connect to Simchat Torah in a program specifically geared towards teens.  


TABC Students Earn High Recognition from the National Merit Scholarship Program
TABC is proud to announce that almost 10% of our senior class has been recognized by the National Merit Scholarship Program either as a Merit semi-finalist or as "Commended" Students. Senior Akiva Sturm was named a National Merit Scholar semi-finalist this year. This outstanding achievement ranks TABC among the top yeshivot in the Tri-State area in National Merit recognition. Akiva will have an opportunity to continue in the competition for some 7,400 National Merit Scholarships worth more than $32 million that will be offered next spring. 

Of the over 1.6 million students who entered the National Merit Program by taking the Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test, eight TABC students, received selection index numbers that were among the top 50,000. Their accomplishment is particularly notable because the State of New Jersey has higher threshold to become a merit semi-finalist than any other state in the country. We are proud that so many of our students have received the academic preparation and challenge to reach this high level. Those commended are Avraham Davis, Uri Garfunkel, Jonathan Haberman, Avraham Kahan, Jacob Lerer, Eli Rifkind, Yonatan Stewart, and Nathanael Vinar.
   
TABC Students Earn Over $1,000
Towards Sefarim 
in YU Bekiut Program
TABC is very proud to announce that twenty of our talmidim earned cash rewards towards sefarim for participating in the YU High School Bekiut Program this past school year! In total, our students earned $1,035 for their high test scores.

We are particularly proud of Moshe Golubtchik '19, Eitan Mermelstein '21, and Akiva Sturm '19 for earning $125, $130 and $180 respectively!
Alumni Kollel Kicks Off
Today we kicked off our TABC Friday Alumni Kollel program. Twelve alumni will be joining us this year for this special program which includes learning, mentorship, building relationships and maintaining connections with our esteemed alumni.

Participants in this year's Kollel are  Akiva Wiener,  Ariel Forman,  Aviel Avidan,  Daniel Levy,  Gavi Forman,  Sam Eisenstadter,  Shua Naor,  Tzvi Nash,  Yair Knoller, , Y ehoshua Segal,  Yosef Glatter and  Yosef Silfen. 

The program, taking place on Friday mornings, starts with tefilah with the Kollel fellows joining the various minyanim, then follows  with two periods of learning chaburot, the first with juniors and seniors and the second with freshmen and sophomores. The chaburot consist of 4-5 taldmidim with a fellow and they decide as a group what to learn. The same fellow meets with the same chaburah each week. The fellows take a break for breakfast with Rabbi Scott Friedman, Rabbi Michael Hoenig and other rebbeim who stop in to visit. This break provides them with the opportunity to further develop relationships with rebbeim and each other, schmooze, ask questions, seek advice, etc. They continue their morning with a period of hachana, preparing b'chavruta under the guidance of Rabbi Ezra Wiener, and then conclude with a shiur from Rabbi Zvi Sobolofsky, which is a wonderful opportunity to learn with a true talmid chacham in an intimate setting. Kollel Fellows will also join our students throughout the year at late night learning, Shabbatonim, onegs and other programs to further connect the present, past and future of TABC talmidim and alumni. We are extremely proud of our Kollel program, which year after year, provides our alumni and students with serious learning opportunities and much more. For more photos, click here.
Graduate Reports Back On 
His First College Experience
Recently, Dr. Katz received a letter from Avi Cooper '17. In September, after a year in Israel he started as a freshman at Yale University. With his permission, I wanted to share his words with our entire community. We hope all of our students are enjoying their college experience.
 
"I hope all is going well. I wanted to inform you that so far the year has been great. I've begun amazing classes in the Directed Studies program, including Literature, Philosophy and History and Politics (all within the Western Cannon) that each have a seminar component. These seminars are truly stimulating, in that they are a roundtable discussion with fifteen other students and top Yale professors in their respective fields. I am also taking a Computer Science survey lecture in which I am encountering the fundamentals of theoretical aspects of the field. Yesterday, after spending upwards of six hours reading classics and programming, having gone to all three minyanim, to two shiurim, (one held virtually with an Avigdor Rosensweig kollel talmid at Gush,) spending some quality time socializing at the Slifka dining hall, and going on a run, I realized how much I have learned (in all the senses of the word) in just these few weeks, interrupted as they are with orientation and chagim. (And this Sunday schedule doesn't even include the extra-curriculars I'm involved in)." - Avi Cooper, Class of 2017
