Day 1

Welcome to the Pressman B’Anan (Pressman “In the Cloud”) blog, which we will continue to update as the Covid-19 school closure continues. We know that there is a lot of anxiety and uncertainty in our world right now, and the goal of this website and blog is to support our community and help everyone feel a little bit less alone. Several times each week someone from our administration will post a message, a lesson, an update, and you are welcome to comment on the blog, to ask a question, or to reply online -- in other words, to help us bring the warm & haimish community of the Ganzberg building to the cloud.  Comment below and let us know - what are you worried about? What do you want us to write about, to comment on or to share? What resources will be most helpful? We are committed to supporting you and to finding new ways to connect with our community. Because while our building might be closed, our community is open!
