Additional upcoming programs:
          Thursday, November 12 - Dr. Roberta Goldberg
                   "The Balance Between Being a Helicopter & Free-range Parent"     
The Board Corner  - - 
In addition to their regular meetings, the Board of Trustees will be participating in a Board Retreat on Sunday, November 8.  Stepping away from the daily grind of business at hand will give trustees the opportunity to work together, viewing things from a wider lens and broader perspective, as they begin the next phase of strategic planning and ready us for the next WASC accreditation visit in 2017.  This will be a great way to generate momentum and move their work forward, on our behalf, in a positive way! 
Alumni In Action...
Recent graduate Nicole S. will be participating in the L'Taken Social Justice experience in Washington, D.C., this December.  She will have the chance to meet with members of congress and will also visit the Holocaust Museum.  What an amazing opportunity!

This month's community mitzvah project is collecting new and gently used books to be donated through the National Council of Jewish Women.  Both children's and adult's books are accepted.  Please go through your shelves, or pick up an extra book when at the book fair, and bring them to your child's classroom for donation.
