Schools

Kol ha’kavod to these SINAI@YCQ students, who participated with their counterparts at the Yeshiva of Central Queens in the AMJ (All Mishnah Jr.) program, in which middle school students from 30 schools across the country learn “just two mishnayos a day.” They gathered recently for a siyum celebrating all those students who completed the first masechta, that of Megillah!

The sixth-grade boys of Mrs. Senft’s class at Yeshiva Tiferes Moshe have taken their unit on the number system to new heights with their ingenious review games. Their creations were not only creative and fun, but also provided an excellent platform for revisiting key topics. The students were fully engaged, enjoying a variety of games such as hockey, Monopoly, baseball, a scavenger hunt, Go-Fish, and CandyLand-style challenges. Spectators were impressed by the dedication and ingenuity displayed, celebrating the thoughtful and hardworking efforts of each group. Outstanding job by all!

Junior high school girls at SINAI@YCQ have formed a cooking club on Fridays, where they make cholent for a local shul, Kehilas Torah Temima. That’s a lot of potatoes to peel!

 The Humanities Department at the Yeshiva University High School for Girls (Central) aims to convey the crucial importance of clear, strong writing, deep reading, and making connections across disciplines – but with an eye toward creativity and fun. (In fact, you may just spot the English Department standing in as the three witches from Macbeth during classes.)

Mazal tov! Rabbi Lapp’s fourth-grade class at Yeshiva Tiferes Moshe celebrated the completion of Parshas Sh’mos with a joyful siyum, marking a significant educational milestone.

After many weeks of extensive preparation, the girls of TAL Academy put on a stellar choir performance at the school’s first mother-grandmother melaveh malkah. The recent melaveh malkah was hosted by the Ghoori family in their home in Lawrence. To kick off the evening, the girls, along with their mothers and grandmothers, were treated to an abundant, catered, dairy buffet. Prior to the musical performance, two students led the girls in reciting Perek 121 of T’hilim for the safety of our IDF soldiers and the safe return of our hostages. As TAL Academy is a school for children with Language-Based learning challenges such as dyslexia, this reading of the T’hilim was especially meaningful.
