Congratulations to the Class of 2019! Graduates from The Rashi School are equipped with the tools to succeed academically in any setting. They possess core skills, deep self-awareness, the confidence to try new things, and solid Jewish values that serve and guide them for the rest of their lives.
One of the best ways to witness this preparedness first-hand is by attending Rashi’s graduation ceremony, which features speeches from each member of the Class of 2019.
