Dear Kehillah,

In a normal year… How many times these days do we start our sentences with those four words? This is anything but a normal year and, therefore, not a normal transition as your new Head of School.

That said, it remains important to me to get to know our community, to listen and to learn. I want to hear from students, staff, parents, alumni, and those of you from our wider community who care about Kehillah Jewish High School.

There are two key questions I have for you. Your feedback will help me shape my work for our school and our students:

During the month of November, I’m asking you to participate in answering these two questions through our Listen & Learn survey. If you have more to share, you can follow this up with further discussion during one of our Listen & Learn in-person or Zoom small-group gatherings. Data collected in November will be organized in December and shared out in January.

Thank you, in advance, for your thoughtful contributions to my transition to Kehillah. I look forward to many more opportunities to connect with you in the future.

Warm regards,
