YCQ Selichot Learning Program
On motzai Shabbat September 5, 2015, over 100 students in grades five through eight,
along with their parents, and Rebbeim joined together for a meaningful learning program.
The evening began with a beautiful shuir by Rabbi Shmuel Marcus, Rav of Congregation
Ishei Yisrael. Rabbi Marcus was extremely invigorating and enlightening. The evening
concluded with an uplifting recitation of selichot led by Rabbi Hamel with the instructions
and explanation by Rabbi Pearl. It was a most inspiring evening.
New Student Program
On Tuesday, September 8th, Mrs. Marcy Davidovics and Ms. Michali Wiener of the Social Work Department facilitated a
new student program welcoming YCQ’s new students in Grades 1-8. Each new student was paired with an eighth grade
mentor who was handpicked based on his or her leadership qualities. This is a wonderful opportunity that can be noted in the
mentors’ High School interviews.
The program commenced with each mentor introducing himself or herself to one or two new students by phone and handing
a school gift to his or her assigned new students. Together with their mentors, the new students designed a Havdalah crafts
project while enjoying a snack. Mrs. Davidovics warmly introduced each student and Rabbi Landsman welcomed them to
the YCQ family. Thank you to social work interns Mrs. Tal Genachowski and Ms. Shoshana Staschover for helping with the
implementation of the program. We look forward to a productive and exciting school experience with each of our new stu-
dents. SAVE THE DATE: New Families Dessert Reception on Monday, October 26, 2015 at 8:00PM sharp
