Celebrating Schechter Grads as they Finish High School
One way of seeing the beauty of a Schechter education is to tour the building during the school day. In every classroom, you can see independent and collaborative learning, creativity, deep questions, and inspiring growth. Recently, we got to experience the impact of Schechter from a different lens: by welcoming back some of our alumni.
Guests at ReLiSh are normally local rabbis, hazzanim, or educators, but this past Friday, we welcomed three of our alumni from the Class of 2018: Harry Gold, Michael Weiss, and Jack Resnick. They talked about their most enduring memories from their time at Schechter, and the lessons they learned — and everything they shared felt inspiring. “I remember being at the Kotel on my 8th grade trip”; “I learned how important it is to be an inclusive community”; “Learning to read Torah—and getting to read in Israel.” We wish them luck next year — at Yale University, Indiana University, and spending a gap year in Israel — and we know they will carry their values, strong sense of themselves, love of Israel, and sense of community at college and beyond!
