Yom HaAtzmaut 5776

Throughout the year, in the classroom and in extracurricular programming, we strive to reinforce our students’ love for Israel by educating them and inspiring them to want to visit, support the State and even move there. No other week in the school year does that more than this week at ICJA, with Yom HaZikaron and Yom HaAtzmaut.

Starting with Yom HaZikaron, where we honored Israel’s fallen soldiers and victims of terror, and then following with an incredible celebration of Yom HaAtzamut, our students showed pride and support for Israel like no others in the Chicago area.

Many thanks to our activities coordinators for such a great day, Mimi Fuchs, Miriam Schwartz and Rabbi Etan Ehrenfeld.
