From the Desk of Dale Cohen

We had a wonderful last day of Religious School on Sunday, May 17, 2009.  It was a pleasure honoring all of our teachers, assistants, and volunteers.  A special Todah Rabah to Betty Massie and Lorrie Goldsmith for all of their hard work and dedication over the year and making the day so wonderful! We are truly blessed here at Temple Beth El Religious School with such a wonderful staff of employees.  I would like to wish all of the children and their families a happy and safe summer.  Please look out for the registration materials that will be sent out in a couple of weeks.  Please fill them out and get them back to me at your earliest convenience.  As always, your continued cooperation is greatly appreciated!  We look forward to seeing all of you back in September.
