the choir sounded phenomenal. We are so proud of our friends who participated! Mrs. Eisenman then engaged us with a shiur about the ways in which Miriam Hanevia took on an important role in Yetziat Mitzrayim, starting from the birth of her brother Moshe and on. We finished the incredible eve-

Thank you to the Shalhevet administration for coordinating the event and to Seasons for donating the fruit platter. A special thank you to Mrs. Tsippy Nussbaum for sponsoring the cupcakes and for leading the cupcake decorating activity, to Mrs. Bonnie Polansky, for directing the choir and bringing out the talent of our talmidot, and to Seasons for donating a fruit platter.
