Are you curious about what some people in our WMS community will be celebrating this weekend? Tonight begins the Jewish holiday of Rosh Hashanah. Rosh Hashanah is the Jewish New Year. It is celebrated for either 1 or 2 days, beginning at sundown the night before. Apples and honey are shared symbolizing hopes for a sweet new year. Rosh Hashanah also begins the 10 most holy days in the Jewish year. You can wish someone a “sweet new year” or a “good new year.” There are students and staff at WMS who will be observing this holiday. We wish all people at WMS observing this holiday, a “sweet new year” or a “good new year,” or in Hebrew, “L’Shana Tovah.”
Have a good day everyone!
