Chanukah Joy Shines Bright at 天美传媒视频
Chanukah may have fallen during vacation this year, but 天美传媒视频 ensured that the magic and joy of the chag filled the school while we were together. The 天美传媒视频 community came together to celebrate the simcha and meaning of the chag with vibrant and engaging activities.
The festivities began early, building excitement and anticipation for Chanukah. The 7th Grade enjoyed a fun-filled ice skating trip, while the 8th Grade participated in a meaningful Extended Family Day, where loved ones joined students to engage in Chanukah learning together. Middle School students brought ruach (spirit) to an epic Maccabiah (color war) as the blue (Eretz Yisrael) and white (Am Yisrael) teams faced off in exciting challenges. Families bonded over sizzling latkes at the first-ever Middle School Parent-Child Latke Bake, led by Mrs. Weiser. Younger students in Nursery 3 hosted a delightful Chanukah Party and the Early Learning Center (ELC) held its own Latke Bake. Grades 1-4 enjoyed a high-energy Chanukah Palooza, and 5th graders participated in Panoply. Students also had a blast participating in games with Digital Dov! Before departing for Winter Break, the entire school gathered for a special 鈥淐hanukah鈥 gathering On the Steps, featuring the singing of 天美传媒视频鈥檚 Chanukah song, “When Oh When.”
During the vacation, families continued to embrace the Chanukah spirit with learning resources and activities from the 天美传媒视频 Light Up the Night website. Middle School families also enjoyed daily doses of inspiration through divrei Torah videos created by 天美传媒视频鈥檚 very own Middle School students and faculty.
The excitement didn鈥檛 end there. Students returned from vacation just in time to celebrate the 8th day of Chanukah. Students came dressed in creative Chanukah-themed outfits, and joined together for a beautiful musical Hallel On the Steps with the talented Simply Tsfat. The day鈥檚 celebrations continued with epic parties, an enchanting ELC Hebrew play, lively chagigot, and, of course, delicious donuts鈥攁n unforgettable way to end the chag!As the chanukiyot were gently stored away, the memories created during 天美传媒视频鈥檚 Chanukah celebrations left an enduring glow. The joy, unity, and creativity of this year鈥檚 festivities will surely continue to light up students鈥 hearts for many days to come.
