The Middle School Class of 2025 Advances to Ninth Grade!

Mazel tov to the eighth grade Class of 2025 for advancing to Upper School! With yellow pins on every grown to remember and honor the hostages, the students celebrated this important milestone with appreciation and poise. The ceremony featured powerful speeches and incredible musical performances, including "The Star-Spangled Banner" sung by Ariel G. and "HaTikvah" sung by Liat R. As a group, the class sang uplifting renditions of "Lashuv Habaita," "Ma'amin Benisim," and a mashup of "Unwritten" and "I Lived." They heard speeches about humility, kindness, and unity from their administrators and even heard speeches from fellow students: an English-language speech by Alex R. about gratitude and a Hebrew-language speech by Flora J. about advice they've received throughout Middle School. Their teachers, friends, and family were so proud to see them complete this milestone and loved cheering them on as the students received their diplomas!
