Happy New Year!!

Happy New Year! I hope everyone is having an amazing winter break so far. As we move into 2023, let’s all strive to be the best version of ourselves! Start a new habit or pick up a new hobby. It’s never too late to try something new. See ya’ll at school on the 9th!

Happy Hanukkah!

Hanukkah 2022 starts on December 18th and ends on December 26th. This 8-day holiday commemorates the legendary Maccabean Revolt where the Jews rose up to their Greek-Syrian oppressors in 200 BC. The 8 Hanukkah candles represents each day that the flames stayed alive on the Menorah after the Syrians burned the temple. I hope everyone has wonderful Hanukkah!
