From Parents “I’m amazed at what’s happening with kriah and reading and encoding, I feel like he’s flying through it. He’s so young and has such strong skills already. We’re amazed, really proud, and very thankful! The past few weeks he’s enjoying school a lot, he’s been happy going and coming day after day BH.” EL “I’m not even sure where to start, but I know at least a “thank you” is in order. So thank you for delivering the most incredible workshop this week; for taking the time to talk with me about everything unrelated; and for not only discussing, but immediately working to address some of the concerns. I so enjoyed everything I learned about the Montessori curriculum, and am excited to implement both at home as well as with my students. I had high hopes, and great expectations of this training, and it turned out far Yocheved flew to San Francisco to represent Lamplighters as a finalist for UPSTART Innovators Lab. greater even than that! I’ve been thinking about, farbrenging about many of the ideas I’ve learned over the week, and feeling so moved to be a better mother, educator, wife, person… Thank you for creating such a unique and beautiful environment at Lamplighters, and for being the best possible role model I could choose for my children. With so much admiration, appreciation, and respect,” SS “Thank you for taking the time to hear us out. To have such an open forum to discuss concerns, ideas or the like is unheard of. It is also empowering to have a voice in our children’s school. It really means so much! Thank you thank you!!” RK “I can’t describe adequately our appreciation to all of you as L’s teachers. Today, he came home thrilled that he completed his kriah -even more excited about going alone for ice cream with Morah Elisheva -- and then telling me about his yellow drawer… its still hard for me to follow all the colors and sequence! You are amazing and we go to sleep every night smiling that L is in Lamplighters and thriving! “I just want you to know how much I appreciate all you do for my son.. it is unbelievable what he is able to do and it’s all because of the love he gets from his teachers and principals. As someone that suffers from the same thing to this day, I still can’t explain why he’s up in the morning ready to go to school with a smile. In all my years in elementary school and high school, I don’t remember one day when I left the house willingly. Where were you 30 years ago is what I say to myself every day… ” From Grandparents “Words cannot express the deep appreciation I have for the work you do and for what you stand for in raising the new generation. I am honored that my grandson is in your hands. I see the results and have tremendous Nachat and gratitude that I merited to be part of this wonderful institution in a small way. After many disappointments in the “system” throughout my journey in Teshuvah, while wanting to hold on to the principles of Torah and Chassidus, I am very appreciative.” “Just want to express our deep appreciation for the extraordinary day our grandson had today. We heard that he, just today, successfully completed his Kriah book. This has been accomplished through much effort. Thank you! Thank you!” Mar ‘16 Impact is not only measured in numbers... here are some testimonials of the impact that can’t be measured Morah Rivkah presents at the Crown Heights community-wide Pesach symposium.
