Dear Families,

This year, we will again be offering an etiquette class to our 6^th graders.  The purpose of the class is to give our children the confidence and the skills necessary to feel comfortable at a Bar/Bat Mitzva party or any formal event.

Sally Reynolds, a prominent etiquette specialist,  will be our instructor.  Sally has been with us for two years and the class was very well received.   She will concentrate on: introduction and posture, thank you’s, dining, dress and appearance and the messages they communicate, and cellular phone and e-mail protocol. 

The session will be held on Sunday, February 22 from 10:30 -12:30.  You can learn more about Sally on her website, www.thelifewellconsidered.com. 

If you have any questions about the program, please feel free to contact me.

B’Shalom.
