Hebrew Academy Miami students took center stage in marking the one-year anniversary of the tragic October 7th attacks on Israel, when Hamas terrorists launched a brutal assault on southern Israeli cities. The school held a unified prayer and special ceremony in remembrance, setting the tone for a day of reflection and education. Following the ceremony, the commemoration featured a series of powerful student-led exhibits that allowed their peers to gain a deeper understanding of the event and its aftermath. Organized by the senior class, the exhibits, titled “10 Experiences of October 7th,” immersed the school’s high school students in the realities of that fateful day. Topics covered included: War Kibbutzim & Cities Nova Festival Global Anti-Semitism Obligation to Join the Army Displaced Families October 7th Heroes Hostage Square Kavod HaMet Iran and Its Proxies This student-driven project not only commemorated the tragedy but also educated the Hebrew Academy community on the far-reaching effects of the attack. The immersive experience helped students connect emotionally with the event and underscored their solidarity with Israel. “Having our students take the lead in this commemoration has made it a deeply impactful and meaningful experience for our entire school community,” said Mrs. Lisa Stroll, Head of School. “These exhibits remind us all of the responsibility we carry to stand with Israel and ensure that the memory of this tragic day is never forgotten.” Categories (tags): Uncategorized
