Past Recipients | 1996
Building on the Strengths...
It is with great pride that we present the winners of the 1996 Covenant Awards. Though each of them has a unique record of personal achievement, they share many of the strengths that distinguish them as representatives of the best in Jewish education. Their zeal has reached beyond their students to communities at large, building bridges between our past and our future. As teachers, organizers, and administrators, they affirm not just the ongoing vitality of Jewish learning; they testify to the rich tapestry of North American Jewish life in all its forms. While the presentation of these Awards gives us the opportunity to honor three special people, we also hope that it will offer an occasion to encourage others in their footsteps.
We salute the Covenant Award winners, past, present, and future.
L'Shalom,
Susan Crown
