The school year of 2021-2022 was truly one for the history books. It was our first full year back on campus since the pandemic, and we could not have asked for a more positive experience to reintroduce us to the world. The uplifting and joyous energy that radiated on both campuses was simply unmatched. There is no question that our historic merger played a significant part in creating that atmosphere. The merger has profoundly changed the path of our community - we have been brought together not only on paper, but in spirit and support. Both divisions benefited logistically – we were able to share resources that included staff and facilities, we have successfully frozen tuition two years in a row, and we have broken enrollment and fundraising records for both divisions. We have also raised over $1,450,000 for campus enhancements on the Gindi Campus where construction has already Thebegun.unified support from the community is what really signifies how crucial this stepping stone will be to our children’s education and ensure that we fulfill our three pillars to their fullest potential. This past year has demonstrated that when we have one strong, unified community who share the goal of ensuring our children grow in Torah values, we can mold our students into outstanding future leaders com mitted to Halacha and Torah learning.
RabbiBi’veracha,Arye Sufrin Head of School 3
Finally, the successes of this year would also not have been possible without our devoted lay leadership, board, administration, faculty, and staff. Chazal explain, except for saying Amen to a bracha , the only part of the amidah repetition that the tzibur can speak is during Modim . The rea son for this is when it comes to expressing hakarat hatov , one cannot rely on a messenger, but rather, one needs to express thanks themselves.
Though words cannot adequately express my gratitude, thank you all for your unbreakable commitment to YULA. Our theme this past year was #YULAppreciates , and there isn’t a more appropriate phrase I could use to wrap up 2021-22 school year. Please take a moment to celebrate this amazing year with us by taking a look at our annual report, which celebrates the joys and successes of YULA.

BOARD

MESSAGE
The academic year 2021-2022 is now in the rear-view mirror. Before we part with it, however, we should take the time to note how it was among the most suc cessful years in YULA’s storied history. First, the girls and boys divisions re-merged. This has al ready paid enormous dividends. We saved $1.2 million, enabling us to hold tuition in place for the second year in a row (not a small accomplishment in an environment of raging inflation).
In celebration of the merger, we broke every fundraising record, with an incredibly successful Night of Comedy Event and Trustees Dinner, each with head line honorees who have really given of themselves to YULA.
Further, we had our most suc cessful recruiting season ever, as we get ready to welcome over 120 new ninth graders – with over 60 kids in each division for the first time in YULA’s history! May Hashem, the G-d of our forebears, increase their num bers a thousandfold, and bless each of them as He promised them ( Deuteronomy 1:11 )! But these accomplishments are all trivial, compared to the strides we made culturally and institutionally. Rabbi Sufrin, along with his administrative team, incessantly repeated the values that we stand for. They made great progress in deep ening a commitment to Torah values in both divisions. When tested, which invariably happens in life (see Nachmanides on Gen esis 22:1 that Hashem creates ways for us to discover our inner capabilities), YULA was clear about what it stands for: 1) the primacy and relevancy of To rah; 2) uncompromising general studies and 3) character development. Character development is part and parcel of the primacy and relevancy of Torah, as the Torah’s ways are pleasant, and all her paths, are peaceful ( Prov erbs 3:17 ). We will always fiercely protect what we think is in the best interests of our students’ character development. We still have so much more to do to live our values. I could not be more pleased that – be ginning in late August – we will be the new, permanent home of the Jack and Gitta Nagel YU Community Kollel. The Kollel has brought eight new families to Los Angeles. While the eight men will be learning on our campus daily, from morning to FROM SETH BERKOWITZ, PRESIDENT
Finally, the girls campus will be undergoing an extensive upgrade through the summer – that will invariably leak into the academic year. When done, we will have a new Girls Beit Midrash, a new workout room, a new half court gym set-up, and a completely re-tooled and re-fashioned front and back courtyard, thanks to the gener osity of a number of commit ted families. It’s going to be a game-changer. In addition, we have significant seed money to continue to look for ways to meaningfully expand the foot print of the Girls Division. 2021-2022 was historic. We are in a great financial posi tion, fundraising is growing, the campuses are being im proved, enrollment is exploding, the education is improving, costs are being held under control, and we are adding program ming, while welcoming an affil iation with the new Kollel. Most importantly, we have a clarity of vision and a deep commitment to our values. Now we just need to go out and execute all over again. I’m looking forward to an even better
night, their wives have taken po sitions at YULA Girls, Maimon ides and Yavneh, bolstering the ranks of our Torah educators. In addition to the Kol Torah in the boys Beit midrash, there will be weekly Torah programming through the Kollel at the YULA Girls division as well. I believe the impact of the Kollel’s daily presence in the lives of all of our students will be immeasurable.
