Apple Picking:  Our Annual Fall Fun Trip!

Students enjoyed a day exploring the apple orchards of Pochuck Farm in Glenwood, New Jersey.  It was a day away from the city to enjoy nature,  subhanallah at Allah's beautiful creations.


These unique experiences help create the special bonds found among our students, staff and families! Mashallah RSA Family, you're looking great!
