Meet-the-Teacher Night
Our meet-the-teacher night was a time to meet our newest staff members and learn about new academic programs. A highlight of the evening was the official announcement of our new computer lab acquired through a $75,000 grant from the Gruss Foundation. Rabbi Baumann shared the larger vision of the school and internal programming.
Our students and their parents entered the school's doors with enthusiasm ready to begin a year filled with Torah learning and academic success. "A warm and wonderful welcome to all of our new families at Torah Academy. The students and faculty are so excited about the upcoming year of learning and growth," said Rabbi Baumann.
Dr. Wander spoke about her involvement with the school as a consultant to the general studies staff as well as involvement in the reading programs, curriculum development and assessment.

Middle School Milestones
 Orientation went beautifully as Rabbi Glazer welcomed his Talmidim to 6th Grade. He engaged them in learning activities and shared with them their new responsibilities as sixth graders. "This is a new level of education for them and it is a time for them to draw their own conclusions," said Rabbi Glazer. Learning Pirkei Avos with the students gave Rabbi Glazer an opportunity to access their knowledge and interest. "Each time we are together we will be learning," he added. Rabbi Glazer will instill Torah values and stress mutual respect as a hallmark of Torah Academy and throughout the yeshiva. "We will foster meteoric growth in Torah, Middos Tovos, and academic excellence. In addition to these goals, we are committed to instill within each and every boy a strong feeling of positive self-worth, through successes both inside and outside the classroom," said Rabbi Glazer.
