Each year, the Middle School girls choose a theme that guides their activities and discussions. Last week, the eighth-grade Theme Heads kicked off this year’s theme: A Work of Heart! Everyone is very excited to experience the fun activities and programs using this year’s theme.

The MTA Yeshiva Fellowship began the new academic year with two inspiring events that reflected the program’s blend of rigorous Torah learning and exciting programming.

Lev Chana students have already begun using blended learning in the classroom. With the Blended Learning Rotational Model, students experience group instruction followed by time on the computer and at two different workstations, where they are engaged in small-group instruction or independent work. This model allows teachers to analyze data, further differentiate instruction, work with small groups, and spend more class time on critical thinking and problem-solving.

September is a month of beginnings at Yeshiva University High School for Girls (Central), and one of the highlights of the early semester is Back to School Night. This year’s event, which took place on Monday, September 15, gave parents the opportunity to step into their daughters’ shoes and walk through a full day of classes. Another sign of the new year was Club Fair, which took place on Thursday, September 18. From performing arts clubs to academic teams and everything in between, the event gave students the chance to recruit club members – and gave new and existing YUHSG students a chance to branch out and try something new.

Faculty members from the Yeshiva of Central Queens (YCQ) recently led training sessions for educators across the country and around the world.

Ezra Academy kicked off the school year with an energetic and meaningful Theme Breakout centered on the timeless message of “Olam Chesed Yibaneh” – “The world is built on acts of kindness.” The event brought the entire student body together in a celebration that mixed spirit, service, and school-wide unity.
