Family Fun Day Raises Money for Shabbaton Chessed Fund
  This December 25 found many elementary school students in the TA gym laughing on the moonbounce, enjoying games and pizza, and working on art projects with their peers.  Under the tutelage of the 11th grade, family fun day was a tremendous success and raised hundreds of dollars toward the Shabbaton Chessed Fund, enabling every student to partake in the school Shabbaton this year.  Kudos to Tovi Press and Simma Levene for their efforts--everyone had such a great time!
