The seventh graders at Bnos Malka Academy enjoyed a lively and laughter-filled melaveh malkah this past Motza’ei Shabbos. The evening kicked off with an energetic Zumba session led by Irit Friedman, combining dance and exercise in a fun and upbeat way. The girls then took things up a notch, literally dancing in the dark with glow sticks lighting up the room.

YTM recently celebrated a significant milestone with its fifth grade Haschalas Gemara event, marking the beginning of formal Gemara study for its young talmidim.

Throughout the halls of Yeshiva University High School for Girls (Central) last week, one word was on everyone’s lips: Shabbaton. The annual schoolwide Shabbaton, which took place this past Friday and Saturday, November 7-8, remains one of the most anticipated events of the year, uniting all four grades, faculty, and faculty families for a weekend of learning, laughter, and spiritual connection.

The excitement was palpable as families filled the beis midrash for MTA’s annual Open House, themed “Ahead of the Curve, Connected Across Community.” The evening began with inspiring remarks by Rabbi Daniel Konigsberg, Principal, Rabbi Dr. Ari Berman, President of Yeshiva University, Rabbi Michael Taubes, Rosh Yeshivah, and Rabbi Shimon Schenker, Menahel. Each shared the yeshivah’s vision of Torah excellence, academic growth, and personal development, reflecting MTA’s mission to provide education, uncompromised.

The Hishtadeil Lihyos Ish Midos Program began at BYQ with an introductory assembly for grades 1-8. The very talented moros presented a musical play entitled Fiddler Off the Roof. The students were spellbound and thoroughly amused as the lessons of midos tovos came to life in a clear, entertaining, and humorous way. The four midos presented were chesed (kindness), emes (honesty), z’rizus (zealousness), and savlanus (patience).
