Week of December 15, 2014 What an exciting week! We had our Hanukkah party where the students played dreidle, Hanukkah bingo, made some beautiful cards, and ate some delicious Latkes and Sufganiot. It was so much fun! We want to wish every a Happy Hanukkah and a wonderful and restful winter break. See you in 2015! Spirit Day was amazing! It was great to see so many students dressed up as super-heroes. Each class made a very colorful and creative cape to help save Rabbi Knobel from the bandits. Here are some more students who presented their Book reports this week. They all did an outstanding job!
