JKHA launched their second annual theme of the year to “Remember the Past, Live the Present, Look to the Future—Be The Link!” The goal is to bring the lessons and teachings of the Torah to life throughout the year, thereby gaining a deeper love and understanding of Jewish values and reinforcing their relevance and significance in students’ daily lives. This will be accomplished this through a year-long experiential learning endeavor that is complemented by related learning, programming, trips and chesed projects. Every division will have the opportunity to lead the school in theme programming.
To kick of this year’s theme, all divisions of JKHA gathered together and viewed an introductory video put together by the eighth grade and they heard from division representatives on the meaning and importance of their respective theme for the year.
In preparation for this assembly, every JKHA student created a unique paper chain link, demonstrating the special part they play in the chain of the Jewish story. At the assembly, all links were joined together to create one JKHA chain which was displayed in the school sukkah.
