MADRICHIM TEAM
There are many ways you can be involved as a madrich/a/chol! From helping working one-on-one or with a small group to help with Hebrew skill building, creating Kahoot trivia and other "brain break" games, taking photos and updating the HS blog, and much more, we know that Hebrew School can only work WITH YOU!
