Temima Taps Rabbi Lynn as New Head of School
Rabbi Yaakov Lynn will assume the leadership role on July 15.
Temima, The Richard and Jean Katz High School for Girls, is thrilled to announce that Rabbi Yaakov Lynn has been appointed as the new head of school, effective July 15.
Rabbi Lynn brings with him a wealth of experience, deep Torah scholarship, and a profound commitment to Jewish education. For more than a decade, Rabbi Lynn was a popular teacher in yeshivos and seminaries in Israel, and he served as the founding dean and director of Meorot Yerushalayim seminary. He currently serves as the head of school at Zucker Jewish Academy of Las Vegas, a school he helped found since its inception.
With a strong background in both leadership and learning, Rabbi Lynn has demonstrated exceptional ability in inspiring students, partnering with parents, and cultivating a school culture rooted in values, academic excellence, and spiritual growth.
Rabbi Lynn’s vision aligns seamlessly with Temima’s mission — to nurture students intellectually, spiritually, and emotionally within a warm, vibrant Jewish environment. His leadership style reflects both thoughtfulness and passion, and the school is confident he will guide Temima into its next chapter with strength and purpose.
Please join the school’s community in welcoming Rabbi Yaakov Lynn and his family to the Temima and Jewish Atlanta.
