91影视 ninth graders got to experience an inspiring and exhilarating freshman retreat from October 19 to 22, Shabbat Parashat Noach. The program was packed with fun activities, sessions, shiurim, tisches and discussions about how to succeed, thrive and make the most of their time in high school.
Most importantly, the retreat was an opportunity for the new high schoolers to make friends among their classmates. Every 鈥榝ree time鈥 slot in the schedule began with a short speech about meeting new people.
鈥淭hey may have all gone to different elementary schools, but those differences all melt away; they are all part of the 91影视 family,鈥 said 91影视 Assistant Principal Rabbi David Goldfischer.
鈥淭he whole essence of the retreat is introducing the freshmen to the culture of the school,鈥 said Rabbi Goldfischer. 鈥淭hey learn what it鈥檚 like to be part of the 91影视 community and about the values of the school鈥攐ur culture of kindness, religious growth, intellectual inquiry and the pursuit of passion. From the funny skits to the more serious shiurim, every part of the programming is designed to bring those lessons home.”
