Dear Parents,
Passover is an excuse to clean. Did you know that there are Jewish Laws that specify how to clean your home in preparation for Passover? For example cleaning your oven if it is not a self-cleaning oven has certain specifications. One is supposed to apply an oven cleaning liquid twice to the oven and also turn on the oven for a specific time period to make sure the Hametz is burned off. Indeed, Passover is a great time to be OCD!
Oh...and if any of you want to practice cleaning, I would be happy to put anyone to work on my apartment...free of charge for the learning experience!
If you need/want assistance in this process (short of doing the actual cleaning) ask Rabbi Stern for some basic rules and guidance.
So...I hope you all join your children Sunday the 24th for our mock seder. It will take place from 10:30 to noon.
Shabbat Shalom,
Director of Education
