Lakewood Cheder Ahron Stefansky

[Music] lake with when I graduated in Lake with we had five boys in the class in eth grade it started off with much more and Lakewood at that time people did not stay like today and as people got jobs or got stellers they went on and and the class kept them getting smaller and smaller so by the time we graduated we were left with uh with only five we graduated were in the legion building we started off in the Yeshiva dining room from the Yeshiva dining room we went to the mikah building had an extra room there and from there we went to the legion building across the street was the girl school and it was called the Sharky building and those days in Lake where everybody knew everybody boys were in the legion building and the Shiva was another 100 ft away so it was all one big happy family the and the way the was started and that was the basis of the was the involvement of the parents that the parents were to get the school started and to keep the school going and without that it's not going to work the parents felt it was their school and the parents today have to have the same feeling feeling that it's their school and they wanted to succeed and doing everything in their powers with work finan financially to ensure the success and the viability of the [Music] [Applause] [Music] school my wife and I accepted the award seeing that the mo was at a very critical juncture the is in totally unacceptable living conditions and I don't think anybody is going to disagree that we need to move into a new building and it's only going to happen if the parents are going to help and get invol olved and push it to be relentless about it push the board pressure the board pressure anybody in their power to make sure that we move on and to bring the children into a situation that's pic for the life [Music] with
