With special t’filos, art projects, and other fun activities, students at SINAI@YCQ celebrated Israel’s 75th birthday in style!

We choose to use our minds so bright,

To gaze inside our minds to write

Expressions of our souls’ delight.

We write all day and think all night.

Our words are soaring like a kite.

Our imaginations know no height.

Our pens scrawl across an empty page,

Our muses ignite our poetic sage.

The world and beyond is our stage.

Using rhymes and rhythms to express theme,

Expressive language to share dreams,

To tell you all of things that seem

To flow out of us just like a stream.

The students here at YSZ

Share with you originality.

Nothing short of creativity,

Our teachers’ lessons on poetry

Are always such a sight to see.

We celebrate amazingly

A month of inspiring poetry.

By Mrs. Bengayev, 5^th Grade Teacher

Students at the Yeshiva of Central Queens marked Yom HaShoah with meaningful ceremonies featuring Holocaust survivors on Tuesday, April 18. Through film, song, stories, and t’filah, students and guests honored the victims of the Holocaust.

YSZ HS for Girls is proud to announce that three of their faculty members were accepted to and will be attending the prestigious Teacher Tech Institute @ the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), the premier school for technology and innovation in the world. The Legacy Heritage Foundation will be funding the high school’s faculty for a week-long fellowship this summer, including Ms. Greenberg, Mrs. Wasser, and Mrs. Yachnes.

The theme of the 2022-23 school year at Central has been “A Community of Kavod.” With this concept of respect in mind, Central observed Yom HaShoah on Tuesday, April 18, and, as a community, reflected on the Holocaust and its impact on the entire world.
