Schools

All grades of Yeshiva Tiferes Moshe have begun the school year with much excitement. The Yamim Tovim was on the minds of students and educators in all grades.

Congratulations to Mr. Richard Altabe, lower school principal at HALB, for being appointed to the NYSED Graduation Measures Blue Ribbon Commission!

Seeing is believing! The year has gotten off to a wonderful start at YTT! The limud Torah has been awe-inspiring and the bochurim have made the most of a very special Elul z’man.

On Thursday, the students at Rambam were honored to see a sneak peek of the opening minutes of an incredibly important film: “J’Accuse!: A Cry from the Killing Pits of Lithuania.” One of the makers of the film, Grant Gochin of Los Angeles, addressed the students about the horrors that befell Lithuanian Jews during the Holocaust, and what he and others are doing to set the facts straight and bring justice to the memory of those who were murdered.

There was a visible air of excitement on Sunday, September 18, as students, mothers, and alumnae of the Stella K. Abraham High School for Girls family boarded the bus for SKA’s all-day event: Elul Day of Inspiration – a t’shuvah journey. The trip emphasized the opportunity to “see Hashem in all places and at all times,” and it certainly lived up to its promise.

As the Yamim Nora’im approach, the Queens students and alumni of Ezra Academy were treated to a special weekend of chizuk with the mashgiach ruchani of the school, Rabbi Elie Geller. Beginning with a young couple’s shiur on Thursday evening, September 15, at the home of graduates Gabriel Borokhov (class of ‘19) and Abigail Aronova-Borokhov (class of ‘19) and continuing through Shabbos with beautiful oneg programs and s’udos where words of Torah were shared, and singing could be heard for miles.
