| | High Holiday Challot and Honey Cakes If you have ordered round challot or honey cakes for Yom Kippur, they will be available in the office for pick up next Tuesday morning.
Second Harvest Food Bins Food collection bins from JFCS (Jewish Family and Childrens' Service) have been placed in our lobby and first floor corridor. As we get ready to celebrate the fall holidays of Rosh HaShanah, Yom Kippur and Sukkot, let's make sure that we share our abundance with those in need. Please deposit in these bins unopened non-perishable food items - for example, pasta, canned goods, rice, peanut butter, etc. Please note that if you do bring any foods with nuts to please be sure and put them in a sealed paper bag. Lost & Found Reminder Remember to label your personal items. We are only a few weeks into school and there are already several lunch boxes in the Lost & Found with no names on them. Please put your last name on all reusable water bottles, jackets, lunch boxes and tupperwares so they can be returned to you. Just in case you are hunting for items... Our Lost & Found rack is at the far end of the first floor hall. Please check it regularly. | |
