Happy March! Can you believe we have been doing this for almost a year? I want to acknowledge and celebrate what a wonderful our teachers and students have done adjusting to this change. Our attendance is actually better on ZOOM than it is in person. Maybe that is because we don't have as many extra-curricular activities that conflict but I will take it! Last weeks minyan attendance however, was lower than usual, please make sure your students are logging in to minyan after class.
On Sunday, March 21 there is a change on the calendar! Instead of having Ruach and grade level classes we will join together like we did for Chanukah for an all school program at 10am. We are going to celebrate Pesach as a community with a Chocolate Seder that the students are sure to enjoy! I will have Seder packs available for each student to pick up on Tuesday, 3/16 at Adat Reyim from 5:15-6:45pm. If you cannot pickup during this time please let me know and we can make other arrangements.
