GREETINGS
Welcome to the Sixty-Seventh Commencement Exercises of the Yeshivah of Flatbush Joel Braverman High School. For almost a century, the Yeshivah of Flatbush has maintained a remarkable level of educational excellence. We look back with pride on what we have achieved. Among these many achievements are the love for Israel we have instilled in our students, the excellence in academics we have infused and the commitment to Torah u’Mitzvot we have fostered. The joy of giving and helping others and the awareness of a philosophy of Torah and Derech Eretz are reflected in the accomplishments of our alumni. While we are justifiably proud of our achievements, the Yeshivah of Flatbush looks with still greater expectation toward the accomplishments of those who graduate today. In this spirit, we extend our warmest congratulations and best wishes to the Class of 2020 and to the parents, families and friends who have helped make this special day possible.
