Barbara Applebaum, a native of Michigan who recently returned to the area, will step into the role as assistant prin- cipal. The seasoned educator and former senior staff mem- ber of Tamarack will be a key player in supporting a student- centered culture. According to Freedman, the school’s faculty will offer a flex time where they can have more one-on-one time with students to deepen their knowledge on a lesson. There will be also be a new offering of a computer coding course. The school will also continue to expand its STEM curriculum, the greenhouse, makerspace and prototyping lab. FRANKEL JEWISH ACADEMDY As Frankel Jewish Academy begins its 17th academic year, Head of School Rabbi Azaryah Cohen begins his third year and continues to put his stamp on the school with admin- istrative and academic changes, including the hiring of Dr. Seth Korelitz as the as school’s director of Jewish stud- ies. Korelitz was previously a faculty member at Hillel Day School. Two other key leadership changes include the addi- tion of Teri Giannetti as the school’s director of student ser- vices and programming and the hiring of Shana Kantor as FJA’s first director of advancement. Independent-minded students will enjoy enrolling in the school’s new entrepreneurial course called SPARK, which is akin to an independent-type study where students will brainstorm solutions for problems big and small. A new Jewish history course will also be introduced and taught by current faculty member Sharon Eretz and new Jewish studies hire 2006 FJA alumna Rebecca Nadis. Cohen said he is very enthusiastic about the school’s use of what it calls Genesis Lab, which is FJA’s STEM facility, filled with high-tech gadgets like virtual reality machines and 3D printers. “We soft-launched Genesis Lab last year and have spent considerable time and resources to help our faculty learn how to incorporate Genesis Lab’s technology into the full breadth of our course offerings,” Cohen said. “From traditional ‘STEM’ subjects like math and engineer- ing to Jewish studies and the humanities, Genesis Lab will take collaboration to a new level throughout all our classes,” Cohen said. “It’s a resource that will truly be transformative.” • (PLEASE PRINT NAME TO APPEAR IN GREETING) Address__________________________________________________ City/State/Zip____________________________________________ Phone ___________________________________________________ Email____________________________________________________ Personal Check Enclosed___________________________________ Visa/MC/AmEx________________Exp.
