All School Lunch "Head Table"
Each week, as we celebrate Shabbat at All School Lunch, a different table will be honored by serving as the Head Table. Being the Head
Table means students can invite parents, or another special adult, to join from
11:55-12:40 p.m.
We understand that some adults may not be able to join us in the middle of the day, and we encourage the other adults at the table to "adopt" all the students for that meal. The table will lead the
brachot
(blessings) and get to choose a Shabbat song. Next week, October 18, Table 26, Ms. Slobodien's table, will be honored. Please see the schedule
for when your child(ren)'s table(s) will be honored.
