SKA Adar

Posted

You can tell it’s Rosh Chodesh Adar in the Stella K. Abraham High School for Girls — the hallways and classrooms are bustling with girls in cute costumes and with colorful wigs on their heads. Despite the bitter cold outside, there’s a festive air in the building.

To celebrate Rosh Chodesh, SKA’s G.O. organized a breakfast for sophomores and seniors last Thursday, while the freshmen and juniors had theirs on Friday. The auditorium sparkled with students in superhero costumes and “teacher look-alikes” (there were several “Mrs. Spirns” dancing in the circles).

In keeping with SKA’s chesed initiative, the students packed shaloach manot to send to Israel for the children of Shalva; several SKA students are participating in the Shalva Marathon in Israel and will bring the packages with them.

It was a great way to begin the Purim season!
