kjyd on a roll

Dear Parents,

It's been a phenomenal first half of the year, and we want to thank you and your children for contributing so enthusiastically to all of our programming. From High Holiday camp, to tashlich on a boat and chesed in Central Park, to sukkah decorating, to a candy-themed Simchat Torah carnival, your children have elevated the past few months beyond what we could have hoped for. In line with our 5783 theme of achdut (unity), one of the most meaningful moments was watching our youth stand under a tallit that they helped decorate for the blessing of kol hane'arim on Simchat Torah.

Most recently, our 3rd and 4th graders explored the Egyptian wing of the Met Museum in a Mitzrayim-themed scavenger hunt that coincided with Parashat Beshalach; our 1st and 2nd graders had a special Shabbaton that included DIY candy sushi; and our entire youth department got cozy at a Pajama Seudah Shlishit and Havdalah.

In the coming months, look out for more grade-specific Shabbatons, special Friday night dinners, and a superhero Purim extravaganza! We look forward to welcoming your wonderful children to all these, and more!
