Holocaust and Memory Tonight     


Please join us for a special presentation of "Through Their Own Eyes" at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, January 29 in the Becker Theater. "Through Their Own Eyes" is an oral history film project that records the lessons of the Holocaust and its aftermath. 12th grade students gained firsthand knowledge by being paired with Holocaust survivors, whom they interviewed. From the videotaped footage of the interviews, the students have created a powerful documentary based on the survivors' wisdom on hate and forgiveness.

Annual Giving   

   

Make a DifferenceYour contribution to the Annual Giving Campaign, which supports the School's daily operations, is key to Emery/Weiner's current and future success.

 

As the lifeblood of EWS, Annual Giving has been making a critical difference since 2002 when the program started with contributions totaling $95,000 from 20% of the parents and a few friends of the School.  Today, our program is providing over $200,000 annually to our bottom line from 80% of our parents and friends. Your contributions benefit every student, teacher and family here at EWS!

 

 JOIN US in making a difference.

You must be over the age of 16 to give blood. If you are not old enough, or if you are not capable of giving blood, encourage your parents and friends to register for the blood drive. Signups will be taken from January 15 to February 7.  To sign up, email
