Youngstown Recycling Calendar Contest Winners

Yesterday, two of our students, Sarah and Maddie, attended an awards program sponsored by the Youngstown Litter Control and Recycling Board.
Both students were winners in the Recycling Calendar Contest. Their original art work appears in this year's Recycling calendar. The students obtained copies of the calendar and were also awarded a certificate and a gift card.
A special congratulations also goes out to Mrs. Griffith, our art instructor for her guidance and instruction to these, and to all of the Akiva students.

Congratulations to Maddie, Sarah and Mrs. Griffith !!

Torah Readings

Last week three of our fourth graders read from the Torah at Tefillah. Parents and grandparents were in attendance to support the students in this memorable activity.

Good Luck to both teams tomorrow!

Poster Contest Winners

Students created posters promoting their teams in the Ohio State / Michigan rivalry.
Each classroom selected the winner from their room. Those seven winning posters were then judged by the staff and the top three winners were announced. The top three winners were awarded books and a team photograph.


Mrs. Schonberger created her own Michigan poster... pretty impressive.



Students display the posters voted as 1st, 2nd and 3rd.



... and our other classroom winners.
