What an incredible Yom Ha’atzmaut at the HIVE! We celebrated Israel’s 77th... birthday, with Yoni Gelfand (HS ‘14) leading our schoolwide Hallel and bringing the energy & ruach to our Yom Ha’atzmaut chagigah! Kochav Nolad was epic this year, with amazing performances by our students & faculty! Thank you to the Ivrit department for all their hard work and dedication. An afternoonBBQ lunch at Pelham Bay Park, where students enjoyed the beautiful weather, playing sports, hanging out with friends and a special treat from our Parent Association, a Kona Ice Truck! עם ישראל חי #onlyatthehive
🎬 See (and feel 💙) the magic of Yom Ha'atzmaut @saracademyriverdale ...through our lens - we are still buzzing from yesterday's joy and energy. Shabbat shalom!
Yesterday, Yom HaZikaron, we remembered and honored the lives we lost, and paid... tribute to all those who have fought—and continue to fight—for Medinat Yisrael and Am Yisrael.

🇮🇱 It's Yom Ha'atzmaut - Chag Sameach! Our day is in full swing... from Hallel on the Steps and a Chagigah on the field to Daglanut and Beit Sefer LaMusika...it's just the best day.
We hope to see you at our Community Celebration later!
Middle School Yom HaZikaron Tekes (Ceremony)
Yossi Hershkovitz z"l Beit Sefer LaMusika
🎻As we transition from the reflection and remembrance of Yom HaZikaron to ...the celebration and joy of Yom Ha’atzmaut tomorrow, we eagerly anticipate one of our most beloved annual events: the Middle School Beit Sefer LaMusika program—now renamed in honor of Yossi Hershkovitz z”l.
Yossi, who brought his love of music and his kind, inspiring approach to teaching to SAR, played a pivotal role in shaping this program into what it is today.
Yossi’s death defending Israel in November 2023 was an immense loss, but his memory continues to live on in every note performed by our students.
Students’ performances in the Yossi Hershkovitz z”l Beit Sefer LaMusika program, culminating tomorrow, serve as a powerful reflection of Yossi’s enduring impact, his love for his country, and the beauty he brought to our school and our lives.
🎶 We invite you to watch the performances via livestream tomorrow at 10:00 AM on SAR Live at SARAcademy.org.
🇮🇱 On Yom HaZikaron, we come together as a community to remember and ...honor the soldiers who gave their lives in defense of Medinat Yisrael, as well as the victims of terror.
Last night, we joined the Riverdale Jewish Community Partnership for a moving ceremony at SAR High School. Together with bereaved families from our community, we paid tribute to three heroic chayalim who fell in Gaza this past year.
Today, we stood united as a school community—students, faculty, and staff—devoting the day to remembrance and reflection. Throughout the day, students engaged in meaningful tekesim and conversations, learning the stories of those who made the ultimate sacrifice and hearing firsthand from chayalim within our community. Middle school students also heard from Elkana Cohen, author of OCT 7, who offered powerful insights on loss and resilience.
In a year marked by profound sorrow, we carry the memory of our fallen heroes with even greater urgency—especially for the families who bear the weight of grief each and every day.
Yehi zichram baruch.
NEW TIME: Please join us virtually at 2:15PM-3:00PM as grades 5-8 gather to ...honor the memory of Israel's fallen soldiers and victims of terror. Visit https://saracademy.org/sar-live/ to view the ceremony.
