The Torah Academy of Boca Raton Raton held its 17th anniversary dinner on March 31. A crowd of over 300 joined in the celebration. The beautiful ambiance was set by shimmering gold tablecloths, pink florals, and candlelight. The school paid tribute to benefactors Leon and Leona Brauser and Yanki and Lauren Hofstatter. In addition, the yeshiva proudly welcomed several members of the Boca Police Department, in recognition of their ongoing assistance with improving school security.
Rabbi Reuven Feinberg, dean, began the night with a heartfelt thank you to Torah Academy’s generous donors and community supporters. He asked the teaching staff to stand as the attendees acknowledged their daily dedication to each of their students.
Emphasizing the Jewish imperative of hakaras hatov, expressing appreciation, Rabbi Feinberg thanked the Boca Police Department for its close partnership and careful guidance. Chief Dan Alexander praised the Torah Academy’s commitment to the safety of all students and staff, and thanked the yeshiva for acknowledging their efforts to “protect and serve” at the highest possible level.
All in attendance were treated to Rabbi Netanel Chait and the Boys Middle School Choir’s sweet-sounding performance that added a special touch to the evening.
The formal dinner program concluded with an energetic video montage of the learning, special programs, friendships, warmth, and mission that all create the hallmark of a Torah Academy education.
