HANC Middle School’s Eighth Grade Graduation took place on Wednesday, June 21, in the gym of our illustrious yeshivah. The gym was adorned with balloons and a “2023” arch. The graduates looked extremely proud as they walked down the aisle and their parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents were certainly shepping a lot of nachas.

On Thursday, August 31, and Tuesday, September 5, HANC had two packed days of PD (professional development) for the faculty. Rabbi Hecht opened the PD with an amazing story about when you are united in your goal/mission, anything is possible. He went on to explain that our goal as a faculty is to make sure that everyone is focused on the student’s success.
