Mirowitz teachers purposefully plan for learning moments that will become treasured life-long memories. We infuse childhood with Jewish milestones like Simchat Gan, Simchat Siddur, chanting Torah and visiting Israel. We plant butterfly gardens, restore prairies, nurture chickens, sustain ponds and grow vegetables, immersing our students in the world beyond the classroom.

It is our hope that when your children are Mirowitz alumni, they will look back on their childhoods with joy. We hope they will recall profound moments that are connected with learning, with Judaism and community. We hope they will continue to find that learning is satisfying and inspiring, and that the memories they made here have shaped them into the best version of themselves.

After all, our childhood memories have the potential to make us who we are.

Have a memory-making and joyful winter vacation! We'll see you January 3. 

Shabbat Shalom,

Cheryl

We may not see you the last two weeks of the calendar year, but our fundraising efforts do not take a break!

We hope you will consider a year-end gift to your child's school. Your contribution allows us to stay on the forefront of educational practice, to remain financially accessible to a diversity of families, and helps us attract quality teachers for your children. 

Your gift of any size matters! Please contact Marianne if you have questions, if you need an end-of-year contribution report or would like to learn about transferring appreciated securities. Thank you for your generosity!

Your children have been calling out African words and countries, and joyfully dancing to an African beat! Yes...our beloved Mr. Diadie is back! He says "I love teaching at Mirowitz! The kids are smart, and their behavior is very, very good. They welcome diversity more than any other place I've taught."

First graders researched their family pilgrims — the people in their own families who crossed the ocean for a better life. For most of the students, research has included sifting through old photo albums, conversations with grandparents and dusting off black and white portraits of courageous men and women who lived a century ago. 

Your loving kindness, envelop it in Your peace, and bestow Your light and truth upon its leaders, ministers, and advisors, and grace them with Your good counsel. Strengthen the hands of those who defend our holy land, grant them deliverance, and adorn them in a mantle of victory. Ordain peace in the land and grant its inhabitants eternal happiness.
