  • Rabbi Yaakov Sadigh HEAD of SCHOOL HEBREW ACADEMY of NASSAU COUNTY, WEST HEMPSTEAD, NY
    Maurice Ralph Julis Principal Training Institute Maurice Ralph Julis Principal Training Institute Maurice Ralph Julis Principal Training Institute anKeeping Eye on PTI SPOTLIGHT ON... Rabbi Yaakov Sadigh HEAD OF SCHOOL HEBREW ACADEMY OF NASSAU COUNTY, WEST HEMPSTEAD, NY CREATING MAGIC IN YOUR SCHOOL Rabbi Yaakov Sadigh is an educator whose name has become familiar to Consortium members during the last few months. He wowed principals with his Creating “Magic” in Your School presentation at the 2019 CoJDS Think Tank, offered a compelling session on creating an action plan to PTI cohort members during their Fall 2019 semester, and enhanced the August 2019 Journal of Jewish Day School Leadership with an article entitled, Is Your School the Happiest Place on Earth? The avid interest in his message comes as no surprise to those who have known Rabbi Sadigh for years and have seen the implementation of his vision at the Hebrew Academy of Nassau County-West Hempstead Campuses (hanc) where he serves as Head of School. Together with Mrs. Bar- bara Deutsch, hanc’s Associate Principal, and Rabbi Michael Merrill, the Assistant Principal of the Judaic Stud- ies Department, Rabbi Sadigh has created an environment at hanc where both students and staff can thrive. Rabbi Sadigh joined hanc eight years ago and was charged with growing the school and creating a school vision. He sought to create a culture that reflected the simple values combined with the rich emphasis on education found in the welcoming West Hempstead community to which the school belongs. Additionally, Rabbi Sadigh had always been intrigued by best practices that he experienced on a trip to Disneyland, and started attending seminars at the Walt Disney Company in order to learn The Business Behind the Magic.

  • Motzoei Shabbos at the Agudath Israel Convention 2015
    Motzoei Shabbos at the Agudath Israel Convention 2015 November 15, 2015 Following a beautiful, uplifting Shabbos, Motzoei Shabbos at the 93rd annual Agudath Israel of America convention combined inspiration and the tackling of difficult communal issues, under the banner of the convention’s theme of “Leadership.” Keynote Session At 8:30 pm, the main hotel ballroom was once again full, for the Motzoei Shabbos Keynote Session. In addition to the overflow crowd in the Convention Hotel itself, many additional thousands followed the session electronically.The dais featured leading gedolim of our generation, including two special guests from Eretz Yisroel, HaRav Dov Yaffe, Mashgiach in Yeshiva Knesses Chizkiyahu; and the Sadigura Rebbe. Convention Chairman Binyomin Berger spoke about Agudath Israel of America’s leadership on behalf of the needs of every individual in klal Yisroel, from cradle to grave. He praised the strong representation of young individuals at the convention, who are willing to roll up their sleeves on behalf of our community. “None of us are smarter than all us,” he exclaimed. The Novominsker Rebbe, Rosh Agudas Yisroel and member of the Moetzes Gedolei HaTorah of America, was in Eretz Yisroel for a family simcha. The Rebbe delivered a special video message to the convention, highlighting both the physical and spiritual dangers our community faces, and once again stressed the dangers of the burgeoning “Open Orthodoxy” movement. “These are the chevlai moshiach,” the Rebbe exclaimed. “We must think and breathe emunah; think and breathe ahavas Torah and yiras shamayim; and think and breathe tzedaka v’chessed.” Shabbos was the yartzeit of HaRav Aharon Kotler zt”l, legendary Rosh Yeshiva of Bais Medrash Govoha of Lakewood.
