The DESSERT RECEPTION FOR WOMEN & GIRLS was an
enjoyable evening that included savoury soup, delicious
desserts, terrific trivia, and a captivating choir. We would
like to express a sincere thank you to: Mr. Neil Mikhailov for
all his untiring support; to the Mothers’ Association for the
beautiful décor and creative ideas; to Mr. Shmuel Stern for
all his help with the trivia; and to the entire senior class for
all their hard work. Test yourself on pages 8-9.
Though there is snow on the ground, the Senior class is
already planning their graduation trip. They continue to sell pizza
and KOSHER CITY Challahs, Challah Buns, and Sponge Cakes
every Friday. Please see the order form on page 10 for pricing
and sale dates. Challahs and cakes will be delivered directly to
Tiferes and distributed before the girls go home each Friday.
Please include payment and order form with all orders.
Our YEARBOOK editors are approaching their deadline and
they need your help. Please submit all ad orders and SEND IN
TEXT FOR PREVIOUSLY PURCHASED ADS as soon as possible to
tbyyearbook@gmail.com.

representatives from Ateres, Darchei Binah, Michlalah,
