"Welcome Back to School, kids..."


Welcome back, students, parents and teachers. Thanks to the volunteers who will hopefully make the transition smoother; the teachers, who have prepared the classrooms with love and expertise.


May this school year bring you wisdom, success, and maturity. There is a wonderful saying, written in the commentaries on the Torah, the books of laws that have guided those of the Hebrew persuasion for 6,000 years. It seems fitting to pass it on to you, students, as school begins:

"Above every single blade of grass, there is an angel whispering 'grow, grow.'"

Grow. We will do our best to ensure that the sun and water do their part. You just concentrate on growing.
