HAFTR is proud to announce that Rabbi Dovid Kupchik, Menahel at HAFTR Middle School, will also be serving as the senior Rabbi in HAFTR’s Lower School. Rabbi Kupchik, now in his 13th year at HAFTR, has coordinated and initiated many successful Judaic studies curricular and co-curricular programs which range from introducing a mishna and gemorrahskill based curriculum, to enhancing and enriching the Bar/Bat mitzvah preparations. While continuing to work with Dr. Rochelle Brand, Principal of the Middle School, Rabbi Kupchik will also be working with Ms. Joy Hammer, HAFTR Lower School Principal, and Rabbi Stuart Olshan, Director of Judaic studies in the Lower School, in areas such as vertical integration of the Limudei Kodesh curriculum, the Siddur and Chumash programs for the first and second graders and welcoming new parents to the school. HAFTR Lower School is very excited to open its doors to Rabbi Kupchik.
