Among the many accomplishments of 2015, she said, was the hiring of Caryn Symons as director of its nursery school in the Early Childhood Center.

BBYO teens were enlightened, Kolodny said, by the stories of a Holocaust survivor during a Shabbat pot luck dinner.
Seniors participated in intellectually stimulating programs that also offered social interactions, she said.
