Fathers' Fix-it Day a Resounding Success!

IMG-20240915-WA0024.jpg

Sunday morning brought with it STA’s much-anticipated Dads Fix-It Day, and it was a resounding success! This was the first project of our newly relaunched PTO. Fathers from JPA and STA rolled up their sleeves and came together to help with various repair and improvement projects around the school. From power washing, to our remaking our outdoor toddler space, to the start of a new hammock garden, and so much more, their hard work and dedication made a significant impact.

Thank you to Jackson Fragozo for overseeing the work, PTO heads, Chaya Mushka Ceitlin and Tzivyah Greenwald for arranging the event and childcare, and Rabbi Chesney and Yossi Cohen for a great BBQ lunch. A big thank you to all the dads who participated!

Rosh Hashana Case Files: Middle School Girls Research the Jewish New Year

This Tishrei season, our middle school girls donned their detective hats as they delved into an exciting research project. Each group of students was given a different part of the holiday season to research and create a case file on. As each holiday approaches, the group will present the portfolio which they put together. Information in the case file includes the meaning of the names of the holidays, its unique laws and customs, the deeper meaning to the holiday, the schedule, special foods, and prayers. What a great way to showcase how learning can be as fun as solving a mystery!
