Chol Hamoed Sukkot at SAR Academy
Chol Hamoed Sukkot at SAR Academy was non-stop fun! 🎉 From joyful Hallel and... Hoshanot on the field to hands-on holiday learning, bouncing on inflatables, flying high at SkyZone, tackling ropes courses, hopping around in musical chairs, biking through Central Park, team-building activities, and giving back through chesed — our students celebrated b’simchat hachag with ruach and heart!

Riverdale Community October 7th Commemoration Program Replay
Last night, our community gathered at SAR High School for the Riverdale Jewish ...Community Partnership’s Commemoration of October 7. You can watch a recording at bit.ly/Oct7RCP.
Marking two years since the attacks, we came together in remembrance and reflection, hearing powerful testimonies from heroes and survivors who inspired us with their courage, Nadav Rudaeff, whose father, Lior z”l, is still being held in Gaza, Maya Izoutcheev, a survivor of the Nova Festival, and Omri, who fought terrorists on October 7 and in the days that followed, saved countless lives.
We are grateful to the local leaders who continue to stand with us in strength and solidarity: Congressman Ritchie Torres, New York State Senator Gustavo Rivera, New York State Assemblyman Jeffrey Dinowitz, Bronx Borough President Vanessa L. Gibson, Bronx District Attorney Darcel D. Clark, and New York City Council Member Eric Dinowitz.
May we see the speedy and safe return of the remaining hostages soon. 🇮🇱 🎗️
