Solomon Schechter Academy recently inaugurated its brand new Sondra and Martin Schwartz Family Gymnasium with a cocktail and ribbon-cutting ceremony. The gym will provide over 400 students in Grades 1 to 6 the opportunity to participate in a wide variety of physical education classes and sports, including basketball, soccer, floor field hockey, dance, rock climbing, gymnastics and more. In addition, a viewing gallery for 50 spectators to watch their children’s games was built, thanks to a generous gift from Michael and Melissa Assaraf.
This new gym, along with new team uniforms, has allowed Solomon Schechter Academy to continually enhance its strong athletic program, giving more kids the opportunity to develop their confidence, leadership, skills and sportsmanship on and off the field. They are grateful to more than 200 donors who made this project possible!
