Purim Reminders
Friday:
Mishloach manot were distributed after school today. If you did not pick yours up, be sure to do so on Monday.
Sunday:
Don't miss the Hunger Banquet at Jessica Rosenberg's home, 6:00-8:00 p.m. Please bring a minimum donation of $5; 100% of your donation will go directly to Mazon. A Hunger Banquet is a unique opportunity for students to put themselves in someone else's shoes and learn about the lives of millions of hungry people around the world, while at the same time raising money to help people in need.
Monday:
Wear costumes in the morning, but bring a change of clothes for our afternoon Tikkun Olam projects. Make sure you have closed-toe shoes, long pants, and other cold-weather gear.
Wednesday:
Our Purim celebrations will wind down with a fancy breakfast and spiels. |
