I hope you enjoyed your snow days last week. While it was disappointing to have to cancel Noar, the safety of all our teachers and families is our priority. Thank you all for your understanding.
There is no Noar session this Sunday due to the MLK holiday. This is a perfect time for families to focus on mitzvah opportunities throughout the city. JFCS has an event at Weber on Sunday, and you can register here . The Sandwich Project is an easy way to volunteer as a family or with a small group of friends. It can even become a weekly way to give back to the community. Check out the weekend full of events run by Repair the World in partnership with In the City Camps.
We look forward to seeing everyone on Sunday, January 26th.
