Ezra Academy wasted no time setting the tone for an incredible year, hosting an extraordinarily successful club fair during the very first week of school. The event – bursting with energy, music, and excitement – brought students together to explore Ezra’s ever-growing extracurricular offerings. The fair showcased the school’s commitment to providing opportunities for every student, whether their interests lean toward athletics, the arts, academics, or leadership.
Building on the momentum of recent years, Ezra proudly highlighted both new and established programs. Two years ago, the school launched a girls’ volleyball team and a chess team, which have quickly become staples of the extracurricular scene. This year, Ezra is thrilled to introduce two more exciting additions: a boys’ soccer team and a robotics club. Both drew heavy interest from students eager to represent their school on the field and in competitions. Longtime favorites also enjoyed strong support – particularly the book club, which continues to grow, and the school newspaper, which emerged as one of the most popular sign-ups at the fair.
Of course, the crown jewel of Ezra Academy’s extracurriculars remains the acclaimed Law Program. Its centerpiece, the Mock Trial team, has consistently been a source of pride and achievement for the school. Students not only gain an impressive understanding of the law but also have the unique opportunity to argue cases and present their skills in both state and federal courthouses. The excitement for this year’s team was undeniable, as new and returning students flocked to sign up and join one of Ezra’s most prestigious traditions.
The fair itself was a celebration, run under the guidance of the school’s dynamic new Director of Programming, Rabbi Mittelman. Students were treated to festive music, cotton candy, popcorn, and snow cones, as they eagerly signed up for their favorite clubs and teams. The energy was electric, with students excited not just to participate but to contribute to the life of their school community.
With every passing year, Ezra Academy grows stronger, continuing to nurture the diverse interests, talents, and passions of its students. The club fair was more than an event; it was a joyful reminder that Ezra is a place where all students can find their voice, their passion, and their community.
