Schools

Hadar Bet Yaakov’s multifaceted approach to Chodesh Elul, t’shuvah, and new beginnings infused students with positivity and warmth. Girls enjoyed a meaningful “HBY Challah Bake” with activity director Ms. Miriam Yakubov, where girls learned about the davening opportunities inherent in each step of challah making.

One of the most meaningful of SKA programs during Aseres Y’mei T’shuvah is the annual Tefillah on the Beach, held each year on the Atlantic Beach boardwalk.

Classrooms are busy with rotations and small group learning which helps students reach their potential and helps teachers understand each child’s specific skills and needs.

One of the exciting experiences that we look forward to this time of year is choosing the right arba minim. Everyone wants the most beautiful Esrog and wants it for the best available price.

Students at SINAI@YCQ enjoyed making their own ice cream sundaes as a special treat at the beginning of the school year for completing their summer homework assignments. What a sweet start to a new year!

The talmidot at YSZ High School for Girls began Friday morning, September 30, at 5:30 a.m., when the world was quiet and the sky still dark, as a bus waited in front of the campus for something spectacular. Within a few minutes, the girls, huddled in sweaters and ready for an adventure, were on their way. After some words of inspiration shared by Mrs. Rina Zerykier, menahelet, about the power of the Aseret Yemei Teshuvah, sunrise, and t’hilim, students found a spot on the vast beach to daven and feel the grandeur of Hashem’s creation. Enveloped in nature, and immersed in the t’filah, the girls connected to the precious time and uniqueness of the moment. A delightful breakfast of muffins and hot chocolate followed with pre-Shabbat music and ruach that energized the girls for the day.
