Over Chol HaMoed, Mr. Altabe and his family presented the Rabbi and CEO of Beit Levenshtein Rehabilitation Hospital with photos of HALB students marching in the Salute to Israel Parade with the flag of the hospital. The patients appreciate the connection HALB has made with them, and how deeply the HALB community cares about our IDF heroes.

It is great for MTA to be back in school after an extended break, but YUHSB had meaningful programming over Sukkos and Simchas Torah that brought their talmidim back together even outside of yeshivah. On Leil Hoshana Rabbah, Rabbi Balsam, MTA’s Rosh Beis Midrash, addressed talmidim and their fathers in Queens about simchas Yom Tov. Rabbi Konigsberg, MTA’s principal, discussed the sense of security each person feels from the sukkah to fathers and sons in West Hempstead. Rabbi Schenker, Menahel, joined a community event in Teaneck and addressed talmidim from several yeshivos and other schools. MTA talmidim appreciated the opportunity to come together and learn, while reuniting with friends.

This week, the Rambam Mesivta had its first week of Club Hour! Club Hour is a weekly time on Wednesdays allotted for students to join a club of their choice.

Everything from Music Appreciation to Skill-and-Tell, to Sofer Society, to Mixed Martial Arts was on the table.

At Yeshiva Har Torah, Hebrew is not simply a subject – it’s a living language that our students are immersed in from their earliest years at the school. Hebrew immersion is woven into the fabric of daily life, reflecting one of our core educational principles: the belief that fluency in our national language is key to building deep connections to am Yisrael, Medinat Yisrael, and our rich heritage.

On Sunday, November 3, the Yeshiva University High School for Girls (Central) will welcome the community to its annual Open House. The event is a chance for faculty and students to share the Central story and to demonstrate the unique warmth that defines the Holliswood campus. It’s also a chance to share the school’s profile outside the classroom and celebrate the many special programs that make Central unique. “The Central Open House is a chance to bring prospective families into the warmth of Central, meet our amazing faculty, and experience what it’s like to be a Central Wildcat. It is a gift to be a link in the Yeshiva University chain, a stellar institution since 1948! We cannot wait to welcome you on November 3!”
