THE CAMPAIGN FOR RASHI
As we conclude our second year in our
permanent home, The Rashi School continues
to inspire our students to grow and
learn. Each day students take advantage
of every opportunity this unique learning
environment offers – from the interactive
technology in the classrooms to the multigenerational
programming with our New-
Bridge neighbors to the pristine sports
fields, state-of-the art theatre and beautiful
sanctuary, our Beit Midrash.
The Rashi School building is a welcoming
place for our kehillah. Generations and
Special Friends Day brought 250 grandparents
and other special guests to the school
in October to enjoy a luncheon program,
visit classrooms, and participate in our
Kabbalat Shabbat. Forty alumni attended
a fun evening last November catching
up with old friends and sharing ideas for
future alumni programming and outreach.
In May, Rashi was honored to host some
of the top national leaders of the Union for
Reform Judaism (see related article page 7).
We are grateful that so many parents,
grandparents, alumni and alumni parents,
and friends continue to make The Campaign
for Rashi a philanthropic priority. We have
now raised more than $28.2 million towards
our $30 million goal. With your generous
support and the support of many dedicated
Rashi family and community members, we
will conclude our Campaign with a strong
finish.
We thank you for your support of The
Rashi School. Our work is not yet done and
we encourage all members of the Rashi
community to continue to invest in our
school as we nurture the next generation
of Jewish leaders.
Best wishes for a happy, healthy and sweet
New Year!
WE HOPE TO SEE YOU ON OUR CAMPUS
IN 5773.
