An overflow crowd of parents of Yeshiva Tiferes Moshe talmidim joined for a gala melaveh malkah on Motza’ei Shabbos, November 4, featuring a lavish dairy buffet by Simchas Gourmet and a sushi bar by Eden Wok of Westchester.
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.
On Tuesday morning, November 7, Shevach High School had an exciting morning with the initiation of their Mishmeres program. Under the guidance of Mishmeres coordinator Mrs. Bayla Tropper, a campaign was launched focusing on sh’miras ha’lashon and positive speech. With the recent tragedies in Eretz Yisrael, everyone understood that these trying times place an even greater importance on guarding our speech and treating others with respect and kindness, as a special z’chus for y’shuas Hashem.
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.
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.
