PICTURE OF THE WEEK

ARTICLE OF THE WEEK

Our Kindergarten students love school so much that they came in last Sunday for the Preschool Kick Off Event! Students enjoyed a puppet show while parents from different neighborhoods got to know each other. Rabbi Menchel opened the program by telling the children how excited he was to see them on a Sunday, since they aren't usually in school on Sundays. The enthusiasm for the new school year was palpable. Thank you to all of the teachers for joining the event and the PTA for sponsoring the refreshments and show!
