Rise Against Hunger on March 18th

Give a Man a Fish, and You Feed Him for a Day. Teach a Man to Fish, and You Feed Him for a Lifetime. -Chinese Proverb

Join us on Saturday evening, March 18, 2017 for our Rise Against Hunger event to provide more than 10,000 school lunches to children in impoverished areas around the world. Let's help feed their bellies and minds. We will meet at 7:00pm at the rear of the sanctuary to pack meals and then celebrate our good work and sustain our own community downstairs with a casual evening of food, drink, music and dancing, and a silent auction.

Please attend, or donate, and help us make this mitzvah, and our annual fundraiser, a success! Click here for details & RSVP instructions

Mountain Top School EXPANDS!

Mountain Top School is abuzz with excitement! Our Orange Class started in January and already has 7 new students enrolled! Our after school Pre-School enrichments have strong enrollments and we are looking to add new in-school enrichments for the 2017-2018 school year. K-2 enrichments started in January with 'Cooking with Science' being the most popular! We will be running the next session in March for K-2!

As we plan for the 2017-2018 school year, we have added two new classes to our registration forms: an infant classroom (babies ages 6 weeks-15 months) and a toddler classroom (toddlers ages 16-24 months). We are also opening all of our classes for 5 days and we will be providing extended care hours from 7:00am-6:00pm daily! These new time and class options are in response to the growing needs of the community.

February is Jewish Disabilities Month and ATID is helping us do our part!

Hopefully, most of you have seen our new bimah that is now handicap accessible. We are also proud to announce that we are moving forward with the installation of a new elevator this summer. Once it is complete, we will be a handicapped accredited facility.

Thank you to all who have made ATID possible, but there is still more to be done. Please consider helping THS and supporting our future.
