December 2, 2024 Dear Alumni and Friends, This month, we had the privilege of hosting "The Tisch," an inspiring alumni event featuring Mendy Worch and L'Chaim OG. The evening brought together over 150 alumni and friends for a night of uplifting music, delicious food, and meaningful connections. Thank you to everyone who attended and made this event truly special! At FYHS, November was highlighted by a Deluxe Mishmar, concert, and Shabbaton with Mendy Worch. The atmosphere was electric as students came together for an uplifting and memorable weekend. We were especially delighted to welcome 7th and 8th graders to join us for Mishmar, giving them a firsthand experience of the unique energy and camaraderie that define FYHS. Looking ahead, please save the date for three events: the FYHS Open House on December 3rd, the Sarah Hartman Women's College of Touro Israel Option Open House on December 12th, and the HTC102 Gala on January 7th, where we will honor Rabbi Yaakov Sussman and Daniel and Jessie Lefton. We are also excited for our alumni in yeshiva in Israel to have the opportunity to see Rabbi Zvi Zimmerman, who will be visiting yeshivas this coming month. Stay tuned for more opportunities to reconnect with the HTC community! All the best, Rabbi Shmuel L.
