voice RHONA BIRENBAUM
Through my work at TanenbaumCHAT, I have often been reminded of the magic that can be made by bringing different voices together to tell a single story. This year, in my dual role as Acting Head of School and Chief Financial Officer/ Executive Director, I’ve heard from many people. Each has a unique voice, but they all convey the same message...
THEYCARE ABOUT OUR SCHOOL You can hear this message of caring in every idea expressed by our exemplary Principals – Helen Fox, Sam Kapustin and Jonathan Levy. You can’t miss it when speaking with our Director of Advancement, Frances Bigman. Our five Vice Principals deliver the message every time they weigh in on what is best for our school. It is evidenced by the dedication of our school President, Les Fluxgold; our Chair, Ellen Chaikof; our Immediate Past President, Cecile Zaifman and all of our Board members. Our outstanding faculty and staff clearly convey the message through their commitment to excellence in the classroom

and beyond. Parents show they care through their volunteerism and the financial commitment they make to send their children to TanenbaumCHAT. Our students repeat the message over and over by enthusiastically participating in everything our school has to offer. I’ve had the privilege of listening to the diverse voices of TanenbaumCHAT and hearing the interesting tale they weave. The plot had twists and turns and occasionally some cliff-hangers, but as school draws to a close, we are ending this chapter on another good note, written collaboratively by the TanenbaumCHAT family.
