The community is thrilled to share the incredible success of YSZ High School for Girls’ Open House held last Motza’ei Shabbos, November 11. The event was spectacular, drawing a remarkable turnout that filled the halls with warmth and enthusiasm.
The evening began with enlightening speeches from esteemed speakers. Rabbi Aryeh Lebowitz started the evening with T’hilim and shared a profound d’var Torah, aptly connecting YSZ’s educational philosophy and reminding students about the power of women to make a difference. A highlight of the night was an inspiring speech from the menahelet, Mrs. Zerykier, who passionately conveyed the school’s theme, “From Head to Heart.” She pointed out that YSZ High School for Girls is not just an institution of rigorous academics; it is a place that nurtures the soul. The guiding philosophy of “From Head to Heart” emphasizes the holistic development of the girls, integrating academic excellence with spiritual growth rooted in Torah values.
The heart of any school lies in its dedicated educators. Teachers shone brightly at the Teachers Fair, where each had their own station. This interactive setup allowed parents and students to engage with the educators, fostering connections and providing insight into the vibrant learning environment at YSZ High School.
Culinary delights added to the joy of the evening. Guests were treated to a spread of delicious food, creating an atmosphere of camaraderie and shared enjoyment.
Students represented their school proudly, as ambassadors, museum docents, counselors, and public speakers. Empowered as leaders, they impressed visitors with their poise and enthusiasm.
The Open House was not just an event; it was a celebration of the community. Parents, students, and teachers mingled, creating a sense of unity and shared commitment to the educational journey of the girls and to am Yisrael.
