I want to thank you for the opportunity to work at Adat Shalom these past six years with creative and caring clergy, all of you, along with fun and interesting students, talented and committed teachers, enthusiastic madrichimot, hard-working staff and all the dedicated Board members it's been my pleasure to know.
I am leaving my position as Director of Education on May 31st, 2019. I have accepted the position as Rabbi Educator of Hill Havurah, in DC. Serving as Director of Education has been a valuable learning experience for me, and a privilege to serve Adat Shalom's Torah School and community developing new curricula and engaging programs. With you as my partners, it has been my pleasure to guide and inspire its development. I want the Adat Shalom Torah School to continue to go m'hayil l'hayil, from strength to strength. I look forward to the opportunity to say goodbye to you and your family.

Please continue participating in this
mitzvah, ha'alachat re'eyvim (feeding the hungry), info
here. Every Shabbat morning, donate canned food for Manna which feeds people struggling with food insecurity in Montgomery County. Adat Shalom has a new
campaign,
Manna for Manna: Omer Food Drive, April 27-June 9th, to especially help restock Manna's shelves from the second night of
Pesach when we start
counting the omer.
L'shalom,
Rabbi Julie
Director of Education
