The community is thrilled to share the incredible success of YSZ High School for Girls’ Open House held last Motza’ei Shabbos, November 11. The event was spectacular, drawing a remarkable turnout that filled the halls with warmth and enthusiasm.

MTA had the privilege of joining YU students and roshei yeshivah for a special program commemorating the Shloshim of the October 7 massacre in Eretz Yisrael. The program included divrei chizuk, communal recitation of T’hilim, and Minchah with Avinu Malkeinu. After everyone gathered in Lamport Auditorium, everyone heard a personal account from relatives of a few of the current hostages. It hit home especially hard to hear the first-hand account from family members waiting anxiously for news about their loved ones.

On Tuesday, October 24, the eighth grade at Yeshiva Tiferes Moshe was introduced to the Names, Not Numbers© program. One of the purposes of this program is for students to meet and interview Holocaust survivors. The Yeshiva has been part of this project for a number of years, and it is now the turn for this year’s eighth-grade talmidim to participate.

Shevach High School’s acclaimed chesed program was launched for this year on Wednesday, October 25. Using the theme of “Chesed Around the Clock,” the chesed committee outdid themselves in all ways to bring excitement and an eagerness to participate in this special z’chus. Under the leadership of Shevach’s Assistant Principal, Rebbetzin Chani Grunblatt, the chesed committee introduced various opportunities and practical suggestions in how to make a difference in the lives of many families and wonderful institutions within our community.

This past Motza’ei Shabbos, the YSZ Girls High School was privileged to host a powerful evening dedicated to honoring Israeli soldiers and inspiring their students towards meaningful involvement within klal Yisrael. The event was filled with insightful speeches and activities, motivating the students to contribute to the community in various ways.

Rosh Chodesh Cheshvan was celebrated in Shevach High School with a morning that included T’hilim, inspiration, and introspection coupled with a delicious breakfast for all the students.
