ALUMNI

Your Rashi kehillah (community) is always here for you. We hope you will stay connected through our events and updates. We’re here to help alumni stay in touch with classmates, build and maintain connections, provide updates on the latest news and get involved. We hope that the core values you learned at Rashi will continue to guide and inspire you.

If you have any stories or milestones you’d like to share, updates in your life, or would simply like to check in with Rashi, please feel free to contact Kim Stone, Director of Advancement.

The Rashi Connection – The Official Alumni E-Newsletter

Our first alumni newsletter launched back in February 2021. Since then we’ve continued to revise and revamp what is now known as The Rashi Connection. We love sending these out on an (almost) quarterly basis and are so proud of our alumni and sharing all things Rashi with you. Click below to read our most current issue and also view past issues.

If you’d like to share news for our upcoming issue of Rashi Connect or would like to be our next featured alumni spotlight, please email Kim.

Rashi Alumni Shabbat | Friday, January 13, 2023

Rashi welcomed alumni for a special Kabbalat Shabbat celebration! Our alumni, whether they departed a year or many years ago, came together to experience the joy of Shabbat at Rashi again as a community. They toured the building, caught up with faculty, and saw current students deliver a meaningful D’var Torah. We love seeing our alumni, and the strong bonds Rashi helps cultivate that reach well beyond our classrooms.
