A Message From the Principal
Dear Parents,
We are excited to announce that Mrs. Rachel Obstfeld will be joining the Yeshiva Lab School team as our Judaic Studies Team Leader (JSTL). The position of JSTL will combine both intensive classroom teaching with curriculum development, while also facilitating a collaborative and team-like approach to planning and implementing our Judaic studies program across the grades.
Mrs. Obstfeld comes to YLS with impeccable credentials including a BA in Judaic Studies and Psychology from Stern College and an MA in Bible from Bernard Revel Graduate School, as well as a wealth of experience teaching at various grade levels at Yeshiva University High School for Girls, SAR Academy, and Torah Academy of Philadelphia.
Most of all, though, we were taken by Mrs. Obstfeld’s excitement for what an innovative and student-centered Judaic classroom could look like, and her passion for creating a warm, student centered, environment where every child is poised to succeed.
Mrs. Obstfeld will start working for us now in a part-time consultancy capacity so that our Chumash curriculum and continuum of skills is primed and ready to go for the launch of our K-1 classroom this coming Fall. We look forward to the many ways in which she will help our children deepen their understanding of, and love for, Torah learning in the months and years ahead.
Shabbat Shalom!
Becky Troodler
From the YLS Parents Association
