14 Apr BCHA Celebrates Meaningful Passover
In the days leading up to Passover, BCHA embraced the joy of the holiday. The week featured a variety of activities, including hosting guest speakers, teaching lessons on Passover traditions, and holding grade-wide Seder celebrations.
In the middle school, BCHA welcomed Rabbi Aryeh Roberts, assistant rabbi at Congregation Agudath Shalom, who explored the history of charoset with students. Together, they studied Torah sources to understand how and why the food is made, while also considering its deeper meaning and its importance in telling the story of the holiday.
In BCHA’s lower school, first- and second-grade students celebrated Passover with class-wide Seders, where they examined the components of the Seder plate and how each item helps retell the story of the holiday, as well as searching for the ever-important afikoman.
As the holiday approached, BCHA’s students, faculty, and staff fully embraced Passover traditions and demonstrated a deep appreciation for the significance of the holiday.
