Inside Heschel High
Heschel held its first ever High School Women’s Minyan in honor of Rosh Hodesh. 60 female students opted to join the spirited communal tefillah experience.
Heschel welcomed Idit Etinger, Shlomo Koren,Yuri Levi, And Noam Sharabi from Kfar Azza, Israel to tell their stories of survival. High School students had the opportunity to hear each survivor give a detailed account of their experience and also ask them questions. The Heschel community then gathered for an evening program which also featured a multimedia display of the aftermath of the October 7 attacks.
Heschel partnered with the New York Blood Center (NYBC) to host its second blood drive of the year! Students, faculty, staff, and parents donated blood through NYBC which delivers lifesaving blood products, specialty pharmaceuticals, and high-quality clinical, technical, testing, and consultative services to healthcare providers and patients.
