I hope that you are looking forward to the start of school for the Kindergarten through Dalet Classes this Sunday, September 16, 2018 as much as June and I are.
To clarify any questions you may have, since the tent still occupies the majority of the parking lot, the entrance to the Hebrew School will be from the doors ON CENTRE AVENUE which access the Social Hall. PLEASE NOTE THAT THE STREET IS A ONE-WAY STREET GOING NORTH,
For those not familiar with the immediate area, instead of turning right into the synagogue parking lot on South Centre Avenue, please turn left on Short Lane for two blocks, then turn right onto Belmill Road, then the first right onto Belmill Lane. Now, proceed one block and turn right to Centre Avenue, a one-way street going North.
The Social Hall doors are on your left, just after our parking lot exit. Someone will be at those doors to greet and direct your children.
Dismissal, at 12:15 PM, will be from the same doors, with the exception of the Kindergarten, First Grade and Pre-Aleph Classes. Those parents are required to go to the second floor to pick up their child in person.
REMINDER: If you plan to participate in the Shofar Brigade at the closing services on Wednesday, September 19, 2018, please bring your own shofar to the rehearsal on Sunday, September 16, 2018 at 9:30 AM. Please arrive at the synagogue by 6:30 PM on Wednesday, September 19, 2018 in order to participate.
Yom Kippur Services for all of our students are from 10:15 AM to 12:15 PM on Wednesday, September 19, 2018. We are still in need of some volunteers for these services.
