SPOTLIGHT ON...

Sion Setton
Semikhah student

Sion Setton thumbnailThe RIETS semikhah programs opened my eyes and broadened my horizons to things I otherwise would not have experienced. Our teachers are extremely loving and caring about our growth and success.

These meaningful relationships with rebbeim and classmates gave me the amazing opportunity to work in Ramaz and the Edmond J. Safra Synagogue. The social network at RIETS surpasses all expectations. The education we receive alters our lives and, I hope, will enhance those of our own children and students.
