To encourage collaboration, there will be teacher-led networking with groups for Mechanchos of each grade level, and a panel led by Aviana Dahan will feature Kesem Mia Hetsrony, Rochel Leah Kosofsky, Sara M. Touger, and Yaffa Kenan, CLC.
Harav Yosef Yeshaya Braun, Rav of Crown Heights, will be the Rav in Residence at the Kinus and Rabbi Dr. Yosef Shagalow will be presenting on multiple topics related to addressing students’ mental health and emotional needs. Together with robust learning and inspiration, a self-care track throughout will feature color palettes, a cooking demo, paint night, exercise and more, to nurture and uplift our hardworking Mechanchos.
To celebrate ten years of the Kinus Mechanchos, the first day of the program will feature a “Thankquet” – a play on the word banquet – to honor and express gratitude to teachers and principals for their constant dedication to their students. The annual Gala Chinuch Banquet, featuring Mrs. Rivka Kotlarsky as Keynote and an acapella performance led by Devora Schwartz, will take place on the second day of the Kinus.
