December was filled with activity at Yeshiva University High School for Girls. Following Chesed Month and Chanukah celebrations, the school welcomed families for its annual Grandparents Day on December 25.
The morning began with Shacharis and remarks from Mashgiach Ruchani Rabbi Joshua Goller, followed by breakfast and classroom visits. Mini-lessons ranged from Judaic studies to general studies, including Rabbi Goller’s “How Our T’filos Connect Generations” and a science presentation on shared genetic heritage by Mrs. Ruth Fried.
A community shiur was delivered by Rabbi Aryeh Lebowitz of RIETS, and a trivia segment added energy and intergenerational engagement.
Grandparents Day once again served as a bridge between generations, closing a busy month with warmth and reflection. Midterm exams begin Monday, January 5, with winter break starting Wednesday, January 14.
