At this year’s Gala, we will bid farewell to our Head of School Russ Klein, who is leaving a transformative legacy in our school and community. Today, more than ever, this gala celebrates the importance of supporting Jewish life and learning, nurturing responsible and caring young adults, and leaving a lasting legacy of hope and impact for the Jewish leaders of tomorrow.
