Respected leaders in their community. That has
always been a primary goal of who we want our
Yavneh alumni to become and that goal seems to be
reached, and surpassed, with every class. As we
begin winding down the year, and we begin preparing
for the Commencement of the Class of 2009, we look
to the leaders of tomorrow, making a difference, today.
Today, a team of representatives from Yavneh will leave to participate in the 2009 Ematai leadership development conference. Ematai, a prestigious leadership training program, has been the key and first step to our students forming our on-Campus prides and joy; Students Against Terrorism, HELP - Helping Everyone Live Peacefully, Uniting Students of Dallas, and Hashinui, our environmental organization. These students are leaders, they are strong, and they are recognized locally, and nationally, as directed, wonderful, powerful beings. I couldn't be more proud. This week, we received notice that Students Against Terrorism, now taking registration for its 7th Points For Peace Basketball Tournament (on March 15), has been chosen as one of three beneficiary organizations of the 16th Annual Tiferet Israel Kosher Chili Cookoff (on March 22). That our community looks to our students as a cause to support, an organization to be proud of, and one to share with, is the essence of our goal. It is what we dream about, it is why we are Yavneh. I hope you will share in that success by supporting and participating in both events. As we are in the back end of the 2008-2009 year, we are already deep into preparations, planning, and forethought for 2009-2010. We are meeting and greeting students who will make up our new freshman class - the students of 2013. We are already coordinating classes and schedules for the fall semester, and we are daily, processing the applications, and return forms for our students. We have expanded our financial aid policies and provisions and hope that all who require will be sure to ask for tuition assistance, and that you will fill out the forms and return them in a timely manner. On our end, we will process as soon as possible, making the planning for our parents, an easier time. We know this is a difficult time in the world on so many levels. Daily Yavneh's students, and faculty, work to make the world a better place and, to that end, in- house we are working daily to address how we can help our families afford to send their children to Yavneh. When I review the successes that are our students, I know they cannot afford not to. Adar is the time for joy, the time for laughter, the time for spirit. At Yavneh, it's Adar all year long. |

Born in Detroit, the city that "put the world on wheels,"
says Cecelia Thomas, the newest addition to
Yavneh's math department, who arrived this year with
spirit and enthusiasm. A graduate of Wayne State
University, with masters degrees from University of
Detroit and UNT, Mrs. Thomas chose the path to teach
math because "it's regular - there is always a right
answer. Math provides no 'iffy-ness' and no gray
areas."
Mrs. Thomas career as a math teacher has added up to an A-plus with a resume that includes teaching at Adele Turner Elementary, Gaston Elementary, TAG Magnet, Paul Lawrence Dunbar High School, and Skyline High School. In addition to teaching, Mrs. Thomas has also served as Dean of Instruction. Having "retired," a few years ago, Mrs. Thomas remained in contact with former faculty-mates Marsha Evans and Sandy Hall-Chiles (now both at Yavneh) and when they mentioned the opening in the math department, the "shiduch" was made. "My students are more successful then they think they'll be and I know they'll come through," said Mrs. Thomas. "They just need to start with baby steps and they soon realize what they are capable of. If you think you can, or can't, you'll be right. The kids just need the confidence." "Mrs. Thomas is very patient and understanding and she really knows how to connect with her students," said pre-calculus student Bess Reisberg '10. "She has taught me so much, including how to become more organized, and it's a joy to have her as a teacher." "The way Mrs. Thomas teaches makes it so much easier to grasp the difficult math concepts in pre- Calculus. never gets upset at students for asking questions, which enables her students to feel comfortable and really engage in the class," said Daniel Moskowitz '10. "This openness truly makes math class far more understandable." Off the clock, Mrs. Thomas enjoys running in half- marathons, reading - "anything in print," from historical fiction to crime novels, from Shakespeare to "Chick Lit." She enjoys meeting with her monthly book club, "Sisters Sippin' Tea," participating in Bible study and singing in the church choir at St. Luke United Methodist Church. Mrs. Thomas takes piano lessons, she loves to cook and she is a "regular" at Central Market, and a devoted volunteer at LIFT; Literacy Instruction for Texas, which supports adult literacy programming, and CASA; Court Appointed Special Advocates, which benefits 2000 Dallas County children who are in foster care. "I flunked retirement," she said. "I spent three months recovering from years of 70 hours-a-week, six day weeks, and then - then I was bored. Never be bored!" |

Alexa came to Yavneh after attending both Akiba and
Solomon Schechter (now Levine Academy)
Academies to "finish what I started." When deciding
where she'd attend high school, she spent just one
day visiting Parish Episcopal. "I thought that's the only
school I wanted to go to but when I realized that, after
all the years I'd been starting my day with Jewish
prayers, that I would now be sitting in a church service,
I couldn't do it. I remember standing at the Kotel, on
our Schechter Israel trip, thinking 'how could I turn
away?' I've been given a blessed life and so Yavneh
it was."
"What Yavneh, and my earlier education and my family, has given me is the knowing that I'll always want to be surrounded by my Jewish community," said Alexa who plans to participate in Hillel events and programming and to take Hebrew while in college. "I hope to someday be able to send my own kids to a Jewish day school too!" "At Yavneh, you are expected to be an adult; to stand up for yourself, to respect yourself, and to believe in yourself," said Alexa. "I've learned so many lessons here that I'll use all of my life, and I'm very appreciative for that." "Because I had the opportunity to teach Alexa in a one-on-one setting, I was able to get to know her than as 'just' a student," said Sharon Weinstein. "Alexa is a mature, outgoing, and determined young lady who has set goals and who will work hard to achieve them. She has an innate sense of style as evident by her fashionable wardrobe and successful career at a local clothing store. Alexa's interest in fashion and design are tempered by a sense of humility and modesty which makes her an engaging and warm person who many feel close to." Diagnosed with a processing speed learning disorder early in her elementary education, Alexa has always had to work "harder than my peers." At Yavneh, her issues were addressed with untimed testing, one-on- one learning, and additional tutoring. "I'm so grateful to Mr. O'Quinn and the whole of Yavneh for helping me," said Alexa. "For him it's never been a problem, but always an understanding of how important it is for a student with learning challenges to succeed. I love him." Alexa is the daughter of Janice and Mitch, and the sister of Logan. She is a member of Congregation Shearith Israel, and has served as MIT Mom and Schlicha (Jewish Heritage chair) of Kravitz BBYO. A member of Yavneh's yearbook staff, Alexa has also been involved in Yavneh's Hashinui, HELP - Helping Everyone Live Peacefully, Health Occupations Association, and Mock Trial clubs. "Alexa is the sweetest, she's always smiling," said Yavneh faculty person, Kathy Woolfston. "She's really a sweet, kind, and gentle soul." In the fall, Alexa will attend the University of Arizona, studying retailing and consumer sciences. On the road to owning her own women's fashion boutique, Alexa looks forward to working as a buyer. As a first stop, she's spent time working in Dallas' Kid Biz clothing store. "I love fashion, I love the craftsmanship, detail, and artwork in the design of fashion." A positive spirit will always be in style and, for that Alexa, your life is certain to make the best dressed list. |

"Yavneh provided me with a freedom that I don't think
any other high school could have," said Jonathan who
started his high school career at Yavneh, left for
Plano West Senior High in the 11th grade, and
then returned as a senior. "I left for a year but
coming back to Yavneh was the best thing I could
have done."
"Jonathan always has a smile and a clever quip ready each day. He has the kindest, sweetest disposition imaginable," said Yavneh English teacher Dr. Paula Harvey. "Jonathan is also energized by ideas; he got excited about learning new things. Even though English class was probably not his favorite (imagine that!), he always put forth his best effort and took pride in his progress. I'll always have very fond memories of 'Johnny Boy.'" While he plans to pursue a career in engineering, Jonathan will first spend a year in Israel participating on the Young Judaea YearCourse program. "I want to connect deeper with my Jewish self and I think a year in Israel will do that," he said. "I've been there before where the time was spent with family as the focus - which was great for then. Now I'm looking for a time for me to learn more about myself, and 'my' Israel." A New York native who moved to Dallas at the age of nine, Jonathan is the son of Raizy and Stuart, and the eldest brother of Daniel, Jacob, and Benjamin. Jonathan, who enjoys skiing and playing sports and video games in his free time, played basketball for the Yavneh Bulldogs for two years and has been a member of the USTA Tennis program through the JCC. He's taught Hebrew School at Chabad of Plano, he is a member of USY, NCSY and Yavneh's mock trial team. The smile, the laugh down the hall, as you continue to learn more about you, we'll continue to be proud. |

"I decided to attend Yavneh because I heard about the
school's attitude towards helping its students prepare
for college," said Eve. "Mr. O'Quinn and the faculty
helps students in every way possible to reach their
goals and beyond."
"Each day is different from the day before in which there is always something going on. I'm not one who, by nature, adjusts well to change but it's one more thing that I've learned to adapt to while here. I know that, once I get to college and out in the working world, what I learned here will make it much easier." "Eve was always prepared for class, she worked very hard, and I'm very proud of her," said Veronica Thomas who taught Eve in Geometry during her junior year. "She is a detailed worker and never leaves her work undone. I could always depend on Eve to have an extra calculator, pencil, and paper on hand to lend another student." Born in Newport Beach, California, Eve moved to Dallas from Kansas, and started at Yavneh in her sophomore year. Eve is the daughter of Robin and Robert, the sister of Neela, Tirza, and Alia, and she's Aunt Eve to Oren, Avi, and Talia. She is affiliated with Congregation Shearith Israel and that synagogue's USY chapter. Eve is a member of Yavneh's yearbook team and the school's Theatre Club through which she has appeared in a number of productions including "Alice in Wonderland," "The Diary of Anne Frank," and "Hershel and the Hanukah Goblins." "Yavneh Theatre allows us to expand our horizons and to step into other people's shoes and to take on another perspective of life. I love doing theatre and our casts seem to, while it can be tiring, still have so much fun," said Eve, whose favorite role was the Cheshire Cat in Alice in Wonderland." "I got to design my own makeup and costume and it was a lot of fun." On March 26th and March 29th, Eve will play Aunt Ev, and a number of other roles, in the Yavneh production of "The Miracle Worker." Eve will attend American University in the fall and she looks forward to participating in theatre productions there, as well as studying Japanese. "There are so many things I've wanted to do. I'm a good artist, I'm good at math, and I'm good at science and, while I've considered careers as a veterinarian, or a textbook artist, I'm still, just not sure. I am however excited about the adventure and I'm looking forward to going to college." The summer of 2008, Eve got a head start on that "college experience," taking Introduction to Japanese at Brown University. "I loved being able to feel on my own and I made friends easily," she said. "I'm looking forward to having a roommate and to seeing what my future holds, learning to let change happen." Chilltime for Eve means cuddling with her dogs Edward and Kiki, spending time on the computer, or with her friends. A fan of Japanese Manga, Eve follows Anime, and calls Japan the "dream place," to someday live. |

"I came to Yavneh to hold onto and strengthen my
identity as a Jew and as an Israeli," said Ariel, who
moved to the United States from Israel in the eighth
grade. "We came to the United States on a visit when I
was 13 and we looked at schools then. One year
later, I moved here."
"Yavneh is built on a college level and it teaches us how to behave as such, how to talk to teachers, how to take responsibility. It took me awhile to get used to it, and to grow up, but in my junior year I started concentrating and I can't believe how much I've grown here and how much I've learned," said Ariel. "This year, I know time is no longer on my side and my 'youth' is about done in terms of my schooling. It's not a kid's game and the reality of growing up is hard. Moving to the States matured me in many ways," said Ariel. "So many opportunities here, for instance driving at 16, have given me responsibilities. I now help my family in many ways and I take it very seriously." "I met Ariel just a couple of months after I had returned to the U.S. from France, where I lived for fifteen years. At the time, Ariel hadn't been in the U.S. very long so we started our relationship on more or less equal footing," said Yavneh's World Geography and ESL teacher, Thomas Glover. "I was a Europeanized American experiencing re-entry and reverse culture shock; he was an Israeli recently arrived who was experiencing standard, full-blown culture shock. We were both new, not only to Dallas, but also to Yavneh Academy. The first thing we figured out is that we had somehow lucked out and ended up in a very special place." "Ariel's attitude was, from the first day, to make the most out of his new situation, to take advantage of everything his new country had to offer. He never looks back; he is firmly planted in the present, and always optimistic about the future," said Mr. Glover. "I've had very few students as motivated as Ariel. He is ambitious in the very best sense of the word. He makes every effort to do the best work possible; he is always eager to learn and improve. He is a model student and I genuinely enjoy our time together each morning. He is an all around great kid, an original - a real mensch." Ariel brings that menschkite to Medical City Hospital where, over the past three years, he's dedicated more than 300 hours of volunteer service. This summer, he looks forward to supervising new volunteers and to participating in a test program as an emergency room assistant "shadow." He participates in NCSY activities and he enjoys spending time in the community of Shaare Tefilla. He enjoys being involved with Students Against Terrorism and D.J.'ing music. "I LOVE music and I love entertaining people," he said. After graduation, Ariel, the son of Pnina and Israel and the brother of Nadav, Tammy, and Ronit, plans to study at Collin County Community College, and then on to UTD. As an adult, Ariel hopes to become a social worker or a paramedic. Entertaining, or helping others, Ariel we know that one way or another, you'll bring music to the hearts of those around you. |

from Tova Stolovitsky '08 ~~~ Shalom from Israel! I'm on Young Judaea's Tochnit Shalem, the organization's Orthodox track. It's been wonderful and I'm having a great time! Fortunately, the Yavneh students in Israel get together for reunions all the time - celebrating holidays, birthdays, and just hanging out! Kosher restaurants are EVERYWHERE and the variety can sometimes be overwhelming. It's fun though to be able to meet up with friends pretty much anywhere and to have so many choices of where to eat. My favorite place right now is actually where I had my birthday dinner; Masaryk, an Italian- style restaurant on Emek Refaim. I've actually become friends with the owner, Momo. I also LOVE Tal Bagels because they have American style tuna, something I miss SO much. I'm also a HUGE fan of Pesekzman chocolate bars. They are SO rich and amazing. Great tastes, great food, great experiences! I'm having the time of my life. |
