WE ARE ENCOURAGING ALL OF OUR STUDENTS TO ATTEND THE ISRAEL DAY PARADE, ON SUNDAY, JUNE 3RD. FOR ALL STUDENTS THAT ATTEND WE WILL GIVE DOUBLE JUNIOR CONGREGATION CREDIT.

Ms. Ilene's class:  The students had a wonderful time celebrating Yom Ha'Atzmaut with Yael (she's our wonderful shin shin). They have been working with her all year and have really enjoyed it.  The students will be learning about Shavuot and will be making related crafts. This class will be joining our Tot Shavuot on Friday, May 11, 2018, at 6:30 PM when they will be singing some of your favorite Shabbat songs.  As always, have your child wear white shirt and a dark bottom.  I hope to see all of you there.

Ms. Hali's class:  The students had a wonderful time celebrating Yom Ha'Atzmaut with Yael (she's our wonderful shin shin). They have been working with her all year and really enjoyed it. The students will be learning about Shavuot and will continue to learn new Hebrew letters and vowels. Their Class Shabbat Service will take place on Friday, May 4, 2018, when they will join the Aleph class.  As always, have your child wear white shirt and a dark bottom.  I hope to see all of you there.

Bet Classes: The students are progressing nicely in their Hebrew studies. Please continue to encourage your children to practice their reading at home. Yael has been working with our students and she really has made Israel come alive.  She will continue to work with them through the end of the year.
The Bet Class Shabbat Service, originally scheduled for April 27, 2018, has been rescheduled to Friday, May 18, 2018, at 8:00 PM. Students are required to wear a white shirt and a dark bottom.

Gimel Classes: The Gimel Class are making their own Tefillah recordings. I have listened to several and they sound just great. Thank you, parents, for assisting them.  On Sunday, April 29, 2018, from 10:00 AM until 11:30 AM, in the Muraskin room, our Gimel class and their parents will enjoy a Family Ed. Program about "Unlocking the Secrets of the Jewish Calendar" with our Family Educator, Jill Kaplan.  I look forward to seeing everyone there.

Dalet Classes:  The students had an incredible time celebrating Yom Ha'Atzmaut with Yael.  They have been working all year with her and enjoyed every minute of it. Please encourage your child to practice their Hebrew reading.
REMINDER.  Our Dalet students MUST attend services in the Main Sanctuary to receive Junior Congregation credit.

Hey classes: Hebrew High School classes continue on Tuesdays at 7:00 PM.
Please keep in mind that these classes are part of the CBO requirement for graduation, therefore, all students are required to attend on Tuesdays, as well as our Hey class on Thursdays.
