Our Religious School is Back in Session

This morning, the Adas Emuno Religious School is back in session, and getting off to a roaring start!  We welcome back all of our returning students, and especially welcome all of our new students, and our parents as well!  It seems only appropriate, then to start this day off with a message from our new Religious School Director, Annice Benamy, taken from the pages of Kadima, the Newsletter of Congregation Adas Emuno:

As summer is ending quickly, preparations for the opening of Religious School also move quickly! Your teachers, clergy, lay leadership and custodial personnel have been working hard this summer to make Religious School 2012-2013 the best experience for the students and families of Congregation Adas Emuno. What’s new this year:
