The MTA Yeshiva Fellowship began the new academic year with two inspiring events that reflected the program’s blend of rigorous Torah learning and exciting programming.

Each year, the Middle School girls choose a theme that guides their activities and discussions. Last week, the eighth-grade Theme Heads kicked off this year’s theme: A Work of Heart! Everyone is very excited to experience the fun activities and programs using this year’s theme.

Faculty members from the Yeshiva of Central Queens (YCQ) recently led training sessions for educators across the country and around the world.

Ezra Academy wasted no time setting the tone for an incredible year, hosting an extraordinarily successful club fair during the very first week of school. The event – bursting with energy, music, and excitement – brought students together to explore Ezra’s ever-growing extracurricular offerings. The fair showcased the school’s commitment to providing opportunities for every student, whether their interests lean toward athletics, the arts, academics, or leadership.

Lev Chana students have already begun using blended learning in the classroom. With the Blended Learning Rotational Model, students experience group instruction followed by time on the computer and at two different workstations, where they are engaged in small-group instruction or independent work. This model allows teachers to analyze data, further differentiate instruction, work with small groups, and spend more class time on critical thinking and problem-solving.

MTA is taking student life to the next level this year with exciting new partnerships that enrich both extracurricular opportunities and community service. At the annual Club Fair, talmidim explored more than 50 clubs and publications, made even more accessible through MTA’s new partnership with ClubHub. This initiative streamlines the process of learning about and joining clubs, ensuring that every student can find an amazing opportunity to get involved.
