At YSZ, we are proud to offer three exciting programs designed to inspire growth, connection, and excellence in our talmidim: Yediyot Klaliyot, Matmidei HaShabbat, and The Hunt.

YCQ’s Robotics Team put on a spectacular performance at this year’s CIJE competition at HAFTR. Congratulations to Joseph Rozic and Aiden Tavor for coming in 4th Place out of 107 teams! Special thank you to Mrs. Jen Jaffe for her tremendous devotion and dedication to the team.

The end of the semester is a time for excitement, but with final projects and midterms looming, it can also be a time for stress. Luckily, the week of December 9 was Self-Care Week at the Yeshiva University High School for Girls (Central). During this week, all Central students engaged in activities and workshops intended to promote self-care as a regular practice – a tool that will carry them into adulthood.” The general goal is to help our students learn the importance of taking care of themselves, physically and mentally, and to understand how doing so positively impacts every other part of their life,” said Central’s school psychologist, Dr. Ariella Gettenberg, who coordinated events for this week.

At Chabad of Northeast Queens: Stream School, practice makes perfect! Not only are the third and fourth graders preparing to be the world’s best menorah lighters, but they’re also learning about fire safety, working on hand-eye coordination, and their fire-juggling skills. Okay, maybe not the last one (yet). :)

Last Motza’ei Shabbos, HALB students, parents, and staff gathered at the Hirt family campus for the much-anticipated HALB melaveh malkah! The evening started with a carnival, Simon Sez, and delicious food.

The Middle School girls were treated to a special visitor: Rabbi Gavriel Friedman (aka Rav Gav), who is already familiar to the girls from the recorded Rosh Chodesh Project videos, spoke to the girls live and in person! Rav Gav spoke about the importance of brachos, and how they help us keep our focus on our true mission in the world, by reminding us that everything is from Hashem.
