Linking Northern and Central NJ, Bronx, Manhattan, Westchester and CT

Yavneh Academy students viewed the school’s Torah scroll from Vyskov, Czechoslovakia, which was rescued from the Nazis and presented by the Class of 1985. The curtain for the Torah showcase is only raised once a year, on Yom HaShoah. Together with fourth grade students, Yavneh faculty member Azi Steiner sang a very moving song, “Place Where I Belong.” The song tells the experiences and feelings of a Torah scroll in the first person, from its creation by a scribe in Kiev and regular use there in a shul, to its eventual resting place in an American museum.
