Happy Hanukkah
December 18th to December 26th is the celebration of Hanukkah.
Hanukkah is the Jewish eight-day, “festival of lights,” celebrated with a nightly menorah lighting, special prayers and fried foods. The menorah holds nine flames, one of which is the shamash (“attendant”), which is used to light the other eight lights. On the first night, we light just one flame. On the second night, an additional flame is lit. By the eighth night of Hanukkah, all eight lights are kindled.
Our John Galt Team would like to wish students and families celebrating a Happy Hanukkah!
