A Joyful Celebration of Community & Tradition
Students at The Epstein School had fun learning about Sukkot.
The Epstein School was filled with the joy of Sukkot as students, faculty, and staff embraced the beauty and meaning of this special holiday and its significance. Integrating leadership and teamwork, the eighth-grade students constructed one of the two campus sukkot for the elementary and middle school students to enjoy. This special space becomes a hub for tefillah, shared lunches, and joyful gatherings throughout the week.
Adding to the joy this year, the Epstein Early Childhood Program (ECP) welcomed a new sukkah designed especially for the school’s youngest learners. The ECP students loved having lunch and snacks inside their sukkah, experiencing the holiday, its traditions, and its mitzvot.
Sukkot at Epstein is truly more than a celebration — it is a living expression of Jewish values, gathering as a kehillah (community), and gratitude. Throughout the week of Sukkot, students fulfill the mitzvah of shaking the lulav and etrog, they create meaningful memories together and connect with the history and meaning of the holiday.
