“What unique joy do you experience as an administrator at HAFTR on Purim?”

Celebrating Purim with our high school students is especially uplifting and gratifying. Our students fully appreciate the meaningful lessons of Esther and Mordechai’s emunah, courage and heroism in the face of an existential threat to the Jewish people They enthusiastically engage in the performance of the mitzvot, including reading Megillat Esther together and exchanging beautiful, delicious mishloach manot with friends, classmates and teachers And they fully embrace the jubilant nature of this chag, with wonderful costumes and warm camaraderie that enhance the joyful celebration of every member of the HAFTR High School community

“What has been your favorite student costume that you have seen over the years?”

Over the years, I have loved students’ costumes that reflect social commentary in a creative and good-natured way
