Please keep these dates on your calendar for upcoming special programs and events connected to the Hebrew School.
Hebrew School Fire Drill
Wednesday, November 1st
The school will be conducting a fire drill coordinated with the Portsmouth Fire Department this month. Students will be told ahead of time that this is only a drill. It is important for all of our students and staff to be familiar with the steps we take as a school to stay safe in an emergency.
Elana Arian Shabbat

Please join us for a very special musical Shabbat with Artist-in-Residence Elana Arian, an internationally known performer and composer. Elana will be working with our students on a special song to sing in the service that you won’t want to miss!
Catered kiddush luncheon follows the service.
Holiday Card Challenge
Wednesday, November 8th
Students will take part in the “Holiday Card Challenge,” in partnership with Holiday Cards 4 Our Military Challenge, making Hanukkah and cards of appreciation that will be sent to American servicemen and women all around the globe.
In response to the recent crisis in Israel, the organization is also collecting Hanukkah cards and letters of support to send to Israeli soldiers.
Parents are welcome to participate! Materials will be available in the Court Street lobby for adults to write cards too. Please join us for this fun and worthy event.
