Acting out the story of Passover, cooking matzah, creating a giant Haggadah in Pre-k and singing lots and lots of songs are just a few of the ways we have immersed ourselves in learning about Passover! We can’t wait to sing with our friends, teachers, parents, grandparents, siblings, Rabbi Ain and Cantor Machsi at All School Shabbat at 9:45 on Friday morning on Zoom #KNS #playbasedlearning #Passover2021 #art #music #cooking #dramaticplay

A year ago, our lives changed. KNS closed, living rooms and bedrooms became offices, we experienced loss, remote learning began and we entered a year that none of us could have ever imagined. There has been change, challenge and uncertainty, but I hope you have also found light. As I reflect on this past year, I am grateful to each of you for entrusting us in caring for and educating your children. I am in awe of our teachers, maintenance staff, clergy, synagogue staff and health committee for giving of themselves to allow us to remain in-person daily. This has not been a small job, and I don't think any of us could have imagined coming this far as a school community. To say it feels good to see your children growing, learning and discovering, each day, is an understatement. #KNS #community #inpersonlearning #grow #learn #discover #playbasedlearning #covidoneyearlater
