How's It Going? Complete the Virtual Learning Survey Today
Below is a link to a ThoughtExchange survey. This type of survey asks respondents to share their thoughts, then rate the thoughts of others who take the survey. You do not have to rate every thought, but try to do at least five. This helps us have a better understanding of the responses and how to improve our offerings.

NCJW Donates Books, School Supplies to NSC Students
We want to give a special thank you to our partners with The National Council of Jewish Women St. Louis who recently donated school supplies to Barack Obama School. Accepting the donation (above, from left) are: Cassandra Griffin, Obama Family Engagement Liaison (FEL) and Principal Dr. Netra Taylor.
In November, NCJW donated books to Jefferson School (center photo) allowing each of the students to take home two new books. The students and teachers at Jefferson wrote wonderful thank you notes (above, right) to NCJW for the donation. Here are excerpts from a few of the notes:
“Thank you again for these amazing books. I read these books every day. It helps me become a better reader. These books help me stay calm. It also expands my vocabulary.”
“Thank you for the books you gave us. I read the books then read them to my dogs. I love to read and books are important.”
“Thank you so much for your generous donation of books for the students. Many of our students do not have access to books within their home and because of YOU, they now have their very own to read anytime they would like. My students had smiles and wide eyes while trying to choose the books to keep. The choices were all so enticing.”
