Board Corner
We are two weeks and approximately $2900 away from meeting our final
Endowment Fund campaign benchmark. 

If your child finished the year with a smile, if our teachers had an impact on your child's education and/or social development this past year, if you attended any one (or more) of the seven (or more) most recent celebrations/activities and were impressed by what you saw,
PLEASE consider making an endowment contribution today.

Your gift will last a lifetime for all Weizmann students!

Noted Essays
As part of our Heritage Day celebrations, students were asked to write an essay using this year's midah - Tzedek, Tzedek Tirdof - - Justice for Ourselves, Justice for All! - as the theme. Student essays in grades 4-8 were reviewed by an esteemed panel of former elementary and middle school teachers who also happen to be Weizmann alumni parents. The "judges" were blown away by what they read and the six essays linked here were deemed to be the most outstanding in content and construction.
