Dear YA Parents,
Welcome to the August/September installment of the parent newsletter. We will try to keep you up to date with everything happening here at Yeshiva. Of course, if you still have questions, please feel encouraged to get in touch for more details. Please also check out our brand new website at www.yeshivaatlanta.org
Thanks to the hard work of Mr. Michael Davis, YA's website is now much more user friendly and informative! When you check http://www.yeshivaatlanta.org/ you will see the student handbook is now online, a full calendar is available, and monthly bulletins of activities will be listed. The functionality of the previous website continues, including the summer reading lists, the school store, and the ability to donate online. We hope the website will become a resource for families seeking all sorts of information about Yeshiva Atlanta. If you have compliments or suggestions, please contact Mr. Davis at mdavis@yeshivaatlanta.org
School Lunch Program: Elegant Essen’s Lunch Program will begin along with the first day of school. Orders must be placed by noon the preceding Friday. Ordering information and menus are available via RenWeb.
