| DTA Graduations |
6/3/2009
This past week two graduations were celebrated at Desert Torah Academy. The Kindergarten graduation took place on Tuesday, June 9th. Mrs. Dina Harlig, School director commented, “We started doing a Kindergarten graduation when our school was just a Preschool and Kindergarten. We decided to retain this tradition because passing from Kindergarten to first grade is really a milestone for young children.” The children who graduated Kindergarten at DTA this year are: Tal Benkel, Hadassa Berrebi, Yaakov Csillag, Chana Dana, Michaella Gazala, Channel Haran, Yossi Harlig, Dov Ber Kinn, Maor Amiel Kohen, and Liora Mayer. We are proud of and congratulate all of our students.”

This is seen from the wording of the commandment to retell and relive the story of the Exodus: “And you shall tell your son on that day…” Similarly, the Talmud notes that our Sages incorporated many customs into the Seder in order to arouse and maintain the interest of young children. |
