A Light to Illuminate the World

The latest mural to adorn our main hallway, Sha'ar CJDS, is Hanukkah-themed and beautifully embodies the year's theme "One Nation, One Heart." At its center are 223 candles—one for each of our students—to symbolize the unique light that each individual brings to our community. These lights remind us that when we unite, our collective glow becomes a powerful force to brighten the world around us. This display serves as a meaningful reminder of the strength and beauty in coming together, each contributing their own spark to a greater flame of hope and connection. Todah rabah to shinshinim Ahinoam and Uri, along with Director of Campus Life, Hagit Lewis, for bringing this display together.
