Ezra Academy’s Beit Midrash buzzed with energy and excitement last Tuesday, September 10, as students flocked to the first ever Club Fair, a new event arranged to highlight the diverse range of extracurricular opportunities available at the school. The fair, which took place during the school’s lunch period (also doubling as the school’s club hour), provided a vibrant showcase of the many teams, clubs, and societies that enrich student life at Ezra Academy.

On Wednesday, September 25, the entire Senior grade at MTA was privileged to visit the Museum of Jewish Heritage as part of an extension of the Names, Not Numbers® Holocaust Oral History Documentary program.

On Tuesday, September 24, HANC Middle School held its Names, Not Numbers program. Names, Not Numbers is a registered oral history film project and curriculum that Mrs. Tova Fish-Rosenberg created that takes the teaching of the Holocaust and its lessons well beyond many previous efforts.  Through the Names, Not Numbers®  program, HANC’s eighth grade students had the opportunity to document the teachings of the Holocaust and address questions about an individual's responsibility to humanity. 

Sixth graders at the Yeshiva of Central Queens visited a SINAI at YCQ class to blow multiple shofaros for the students. What a way to get ready for Rosh HaShanah!

Yeshiva Tiferes Moshe conducted their first erev Shabbos toameha. Students in grades one through six enjoyed sitting down to pareve kugel, cookies, and a hartzig kumzitz, dubbed KCK for short.
