The second half of the Okun School year is well underway!
We had a few weather-related cancellations in January but it didn’t stop us from celebrating Tu’ Bishvat with a Tu’ Bishvat Seder.
February was a short month, but students have been using their time to prepare for the student-led services, work on a Passover art project and in the example of one student, practicing “self advocacy” demonstrated in the photo below.
Please join us for these upcoming Okun School events:
