Kehillah staff and faculty were treated to a delicious breakfast surprise this morning in the Staff Lounge. Students were seen fleeing the scene where coffee and donuts of both the glutenous and gluten-free variety were placed. THANK YOU to those that took the time to purchase and lay out this morning's treat!

The basketball teams were busy again this week. Both varsity teams played at Summit Shasta on Tuesday in what turned out to be lopsided defeats. The teams battled, but ultimately fell to the team at the top of the standings.

On Wednesday the boys JV team played against Pinewood and kept the game interesting for the first half, but ultimately could not overcome the deeper Pinewood squad. The boys JV lost 51-24 and were led by Beckett G. (8 points) and a buzzer beater that led to a raucous celebration!

The varsity teams finished up the week on Thursday against Pacific Bay Christian. The varsity girls started the evening with a tough game against one of the top teams in the league. They lost the game 57-17. The varsity boys followed with a close game that could have gone either way. The team was led by Josh L. (20 points), but lost 64-56.

Kehillah is nearing the end of the basketball season and potentially playoffs.

Please be on the lookout for a message regarding the upcoming Spring sports: Tennis, Track, and Boys Volleyball. There should be a message out to the community early next week. Remember that any student-athletes that are interested in playing sports need to fill out a health physical once per year. If they have filled one out for a previous sport this school year they are likely eligible for the Spring.

BFF: March 2, 3, and 6, 2022

The Salon's next production -- BFF, by Anna Ziegler -- Ziegler's insightful drama explores the complex relationship between two best friends.

In BFF, the playwright suggests that a frequent ingredient in the complex relationship between girls is guilt. It's a valuable insight -- and one that Ziegler probes keenly in her fine 90-minute play.
