Hi, this is Bennett, I just wanted to say how
amazingly awesome this year was for me.
I really loved the marriage wedding ceremony
and the really fun games we sometimes
played at the end of every Hebrew School day.
Thank you so much! I learned so much this
year and I know so much more about
Hebrew than I knew last year.
Once again, thank you so much!

learn and grow. He’s the coolest!

and understand the prayers and I

From the Marantz family:
Scott Newman is everything a great teacher ought to be:
patient, calm, accepting, easygoing, quick to laugh,
eager to connect with his students and perhaps most importantly,
he always seems to believe in his students' ability to succeed.
Mr. C (Carruthers) taught me so
much about being Jewish and
Jewish traditions and he made
Hebrew school so so much fun.
Eleanor Lapin, 5th Grader

The Saturday Shabbat Family Program offers an
excellent opportunity to learn together as a family
while promoting social action in a meaningful way. As
lives get busier and more hectic, it was nice to have
time to explore with each other what it means to be
Jewish and to reflect on the importance of Shabbat.
Parent of Samantha Heller, 7th Grader
Wish I had this innovative religious Sunday school
education program back in my day. A wonderful

Stone is incredible and we have met some really
engaged, giving congregants in our community to boot.
