The school year absolutely flew by, and we are sad to see it end, but we are looking forward to next year. The students enjoyed our educational programs that varied from singing at River Garden to putting on a play at the model seder. Although we were crunched for time during some of the holidays, we were able to teach all holidays to our students to broaden their knowledge of the Jewish calendar.

This year was the first year that we began to teach Hebrew reading to the first grade class, something that is usually not done in most Sunday schools, however, our outcome was unexpectedly great and the students are already on chapter eight of their books. When they learned to read Hebrew, it was a stress free environment and the students learned with games and fun, which helped them want to continue to learn and begged us teachers to read every week.

We want to welcome the Klein family, Rose, Mendel, and Ari, who will be officially joining the religious school next year after visiting and participating in school in the final weeks. We look forward to having them join our school!

We want to thank the Board and Education Committee for all the help and support that they gave us during the year. We specially want to thank Morah Manya, who dedicated hours upon hours to the school, in addition to her voluntary position as a teacher every week.

We also want to thank Gail Baron for another year of wonderful service to the school; she has volunteered with many students and has made a great impact on their Hebrew education. In addition to Gail, Helene Katz has been a new addition to our volunteer staff this school year. She has also helped with the younger classes. Thank you, Helene. We look forward to having them both as volunteers next year!

Thank you Morah Shoshanah for teaching the older students the deeper meaning behind holidays and Jewish subjects and taking them to a higher level of understanding. We look forward to seeing her next year!

We are sad to lose our first grade teacher, Morah Aviela, next year when she leaves for the University of Florida. Mazel Tov on reaching our goal of teaching the first grade how to read Hebrew. Have a great summer!
