Directing a 9:30-10:30 am Abi Taylor-Abt welcome school curriculum can only be achieved successfully when we accede to the concept of future planning. So we are planning our Purim Carnval before we celebrate the New Agricultural Year and equally will be talking about , before we have joyously celebrated Purim. March 19 9:00-10:00 am April 23 (in class) Although it is imperative that we have our long-term goals in place, they must not come at the cost of our present. Thinking about the future and working towards it are the basis of continued success yet it is all too easy to fall into the trap of not appreciating the moment we are in. On Purim we are taught that everything is upside down and noth- ing is how it is supposed to be. The consequences of this in the Purim story shows us that Purim reinforces the concept of having our priorities straight and not allowing our daily lives to become topsy turvy. So in order to keep our calendars straight, events in the Religious School will be happening in the following order. Sunday February 12th Yachad Tu Bishvat Friday, March 3rd - 6th & 7th grades co-lead Congregational Family Service at Emanu-El Yachad 5th graders with Tu Bishvat trees Saturday, March 11th Yachad Family Service at Cong.
