HALB’s Mission to Israel has begun. They brought several duffels filled with boots for soldiers, met with hero Baruch Cohen who saved his entire Kibbutz on October 7, met with displaced families, and volunteered on a garlic field. The experience was a powerful one for everyone involved.
Ever since October 7, the thoughts and t’filos of everyone at MTA have been channeled towards Israel, as they daven that the hostages should be released, that the chayalim should be safe and successful in their missions, and that all of klal Yisrael can unite to help each other. At MTA, everyone is giving special thought to the alumni who are currently serving in the IDF, and to the former talmidim who are currently learning in yeshivos in Israel.
Mitch and Laurie Kirschner delivered letters written by Lev Chana students to soldiers in the IDF. Every letter gives them extra strength to continue fighting for the Jewish people!
The Torah is imbued with the enduring principle of honoring and gaining wisdom from preceding generations. With this in mind, Central held its highly anticipated Grandparents Day event on Thursday, December 14, the seventh day of Chanukah. Central has a long history of paying tribute to intergenerational family relationships, and specifically the special bond between grandparent and grandchild, a tie between past, present, and future that contributes to every child’s education. The event has come to hold great significance for students.
MTA’s “Meet the Israeli Author” elective course for Juniors provides talmidim with the opportunity to work directly with an award-winning Israeli author via video-conference workshops conducted entirely in Hebrew. The course, created by Director of Hebrew Language Mrs. Rosenberg, is in its 14th year and is unique to MTA.
Led by Mrs. Lowinger, over 60 students gathered on Monday, December 4, to bond with each other, decorate acrylic boxes with diamond sequins, and eat a delicious dinner. Students created beautiful Chanukah-themed designs and had a wonderful time together.
