To sign up to receive texts from YN, please text the word ALERT to 22300.
Please sign up separately from each of the individual cellphone numbers that you wish to receive the alerts.
Please note that we will only use your cell numbers for emergencies and other important information, such as school closings and other weather related notices.

Parent School Partnership
The PSP Parent Education Committee is proud to present our second series of the year entitled:
Tricks, Loopholes, and Legal Fictions: Does Halacha Allow Us to Deceive G-d?
given by Rabbi Uri Goldstein.
Join us for five shiurim which will explore some practices that are built into the Halachic system that seem designed to circumvent that system by relying on a technicality, a trick, or a loophole within the law. This series of shiurim will explore when and why the Halacha allows for these loopholes. In addition to understanding their theoretical background, we will also travel through different places and period of Jewish History, and examine the Halachic and historical circumstances behind circumstances three famous and controversial loopholes: The Prozbul, the sale of Chametz and the sale of the Land of Israel during a Shemita year.
Rabbi Uri Goldstein, a proud Noam parent, is the spiritual leader of Congregation Ahavat Achim in Fair Lawn, NJ. He has taught Jewish Studies and history at the Frisch School and Ma'ayanot, and currently teaches at Heichal Hatorah. Rabbi Goldstein also serves as a translator and editor of the Koren Talmud Bavli.
The weekly shiur takes place on Tuesdays at 9:45 am in the Middle School Beit Knesset.
Please note: all shiurim will be stand-alone sessions. One need not attend all sessions offered in a particular series!
For more information, please contact Talia Marmon or Lena Goffstein
In case you missed it, now you can listen to this popular shiur on the YN website!
