1/12/18 Early School Dismissals – Plus Minyan Request

Leave a Comment

Hebrew Academy

  • HAC dismissing early, at 12 with bussing.
  • Oakwood Yeshiva of Cleveland dismissing at 12:30 with bussing.
  • Yavne dismissing at 11:30 with 12:00 bussing.

LJN publishes on Friday only when there is an immediate need. Since this post will likely be highly viewed, I’m taking the unusual step of including an unrelated but important request.

The funeral of Martin Tesler, ob”m, is today. Due to the circumstances, a minyan isn’t confirmed. If you can help with a graveside minyan that would be a huge help and zechus. https://www.localjewishnews.com/2018/01/11/baruch-dayan-haemes-martin-tesler-obm/
