A Torah Thought from Rabbi Idstein...
The Torah’s description of the plague of darkness
is unique. In regard to each of the plagues, the pasuk
makes it a point to state that the plague did not affect
Klal Yisroel, but in regard to the plague of darkness,
the Torah adds the converse—that there was light in
the dwelling places of the Jews. Why does the Torah
point out that not only was there an absence of the
negative, but also a surplus of the positive?
The Kedushas Levi, Rabbi Levi Yitzchok of
Barditchev zt’l, offers a unique interpretation of
the plague of darkness: He explains that the plague
of “darkness” was not darkness at all. In fact, au
contraire! HaShem removed the darkness—the
shades of darkness He created in order to protect
this world from being overwhelmed by the original
Divine Light—so that Egypt was completely exposed
to the Divine Light. For the hedonistic Egyptians,
steeped in the physicality of this world, this light
brought to the forefront the facade of their lives.
A sense of bleakness descended upon them as the
Light of Truth revealed that their entire lives were
futile, and their very existence lacking meaning or
purpose. It was similar to a depression, in which one
loses all of his motivation and drive. His self-doubt
becomes so powerful that he questions everything he
does. The smokescreen of what they had previously
valued was removed. For Klal Yisroel however, it
was a radically different experience. For the nation
anticipating liberation so they can assume their role as
the Chosen People, the revelation of the Divine Light
was a spiritually blissful experience. Hence, the Torah
makes a point of saying, “For all of the B’nai Yisroel
there was light in their dwellings.”
While after the plague of darkness the Divine
Light was once again hidden, glints of it are apparent
in our daily lives. The values of the Torah we learn
and the life lessons of the mitzvos we perform are
flashes of the Divine. They shed light on us, our
families, our communities, and the world at large. As
we relive the time period of the Exodus from Egypt
leading to the revelation at Sinai, where the contrast of
our mission and that of the world around us becomes
evident, it behooves us to take note of the wonderful
value system that HaShem has bestowed upon us. Let
us bask in its glory and spread its light to everyone
through our noble deeds!
Have a wonderful Shabbos,
Rabbi Idstein, Menahel

Success for all students
The mission statement for our school is:
“Torah Academy, committed to Torah principles
and values, provides Jewish children with an academic program of excellence in Judaic and General studies, an environment that promotes character
development, and the tools they need to grow into
young men and women imbued with Jewish commitment and pride.”
In addition, there are nine core value statements
that affirm the mission and five goals to work towards
fulfillment of our mission.
So why do you need to know this? MNSAA, our
accrediting association, expects that we articulate the
school’s mission through a variety of means (board
minutes, Kolenu, website, etc.).But we also want you
to be aware of the school’s mission and our foci and
that you hold us accountable. We are passionate about
fulfilling our mission every day. The teachers recently
spent two hours learning and discussing how to ensure
student success for each and every child.
Torah Academy is committed to academic programs of excellence, strong character development,
and Jewish pride! With you as our partners, we can
ensure that all students succeed!
Respectfully,
Mr. Ford

Midda of the Month...
The Midda for Chodesh Shvat is Savlanus/Patience. What a tremendous midda to teach our children
in so many ways. I wanted to share this famous story that displays patience to a degree that is inspiring.
Please share it with your family and discuss its virtue and small ways that this wonderful attribute can be
added to our daily routine.
The rebbetzin of the Apta Rav, Rabbi Yehoshua Heschel, was busy finishing up the last minute preparations
for the seder when there was a knock on the door. One of the Rebbe’s gabboim, helper, opened the door, and
there stood two charity collectors who were making the rounds gathering matza for the town’s poor. The gabai,
seeing a stack of matzas wrapped in a napkin on the table, took it and innocently gave it to the men.
When, a bit later, the rebbetzin entered the room and noticed the matza missing, her heart fell, for this was
no ordinary matza. They were the meticulously-prepared and guarded matzas which her husband had baked just
before the holiday was ushered in.
She called in her household servants and soon discovered how it happened, but there was nothing to be done
about it. She couldn’t bring herself to disappoint her husband by telling him about the mistake, and so, with a
heavy heart, she wrapped some ordinary matzas in a napkin and placed them on the table and said nothing about
it.
Several days after Passover ended a young couple came to Rabbi Heschel seeking his counsel to settle a
dispute between them. The Apta Rav asked the husband why he was so perturbed. He replied that his wife had
refused to cook the Pesach food without gebrokts - according to the custom which requires that no matza come
into contact with water.
The Rav called over his rebbetzin and asked, “Tell me, what kind of matzas did we use for the Passover
seder?” His wife was startled by the sudden question, and she was afraid to respond. The Rav encouraged
her and calmed her fears, and she went on to explain to her husband the entire episode that had transpired the
afternoon of the holiday.
The Rav then turned to the young husband and said in a kind tone, “Listen to me, my son. On the first night
of Passover I ate regular matza, for the first time in decades and I pretended not to notice any difference. Why
did I do this? I didn’t wish to bring about any hard feelings or anger, Heaven forbid. And you wish to cause
strife with your wife over this Pesach custom!!”
The young man immediately recognized his folly and the couple left completely reconciled.
Here in school, we will be working on things like not pushing in line, walking in the hallways, and
simply waiting our turn—all little things that will improve our patience and hopefully give us the strength
and fortitude for when our patience becomes ever so important!

Reminder of our new Nut Sensitive Policy at Torah Academy
We have noticed many nut products in school of late. Please be extra careful!
As we stated in our original communique, we have consulted with other schools and medical professionals and
have come to the conclusion that we will be adapting a “nut sensitive” policy in our school. To this end—
1) All foods that “contain” nuts, both peanut or tree nut, or those that state “may contain nuts”
cannot be brought to school, neither as a snack, lunch, nor as a part of a siyum or class celebration.
There are no exceptions to this rule. Please take the time to read package labels carefully for the
ingredients and any allergen statements.
2) For the safety of our students if these items are brought to school they will be confiscated. We respectfully
ask that all parents and students take this policy seriously and do not “test the waters.”
3) Products that were produced in a facility that contains nuts may be brought to school.
4) We, again, thank you for your partnership and cooperation.
In order to make shopping a little easier, a website offering a list of peanut/tree nut free snacks can be found at

Middle School Math
5th grade girls- We completed our test last week and
are now studying inequalities and how to graph them after
solving. The concept itself is similar to solving equations,
but with greater than or less than signs.
6th grade girls- This class took a test on chapter 3,
which is on inequalities and are now studying rational
numbers and how to change from decimals to fractions and
vice versa.
7th grade girls- We finished our patterns and functions
project and are now working on solving two-step equations.
This is an imperative algebraic concept that students will
use again and again in the future. 6th grade boys- We have been reviewing for the
chapter test on the Pythagorean Theorem and the unique
traits of right triangles. We played jeopardy as a review
game and I think it will help the boys do well on the test.
7/8 grade boys (Algebra)- We are studying linear
equations and their graphs and will have a test on it
this week. Linear equations include the study of slopes,
intercepts and how a line can be represented in a multitude
of different equations; fun stuff!
Mr. A. Tiemann
Middle School Science
6th Grade Science- This week we have been learning

Two Essays by our Eighth Grade Girls
The Purpose of Doing Mitzvos by Chaya Silverberg
The purpose of doing mitzvos is to give us a purpose in
life. Mitzvos affect me personally in many ways. For one,
when I do a mitzvah, it shows me that I have a HaShem in
my life because He’s always there and listening. I always
knew we shouldn’t be adding or taking away things in the
Torah, but actually learning the pasuk “   ”
showed me how bad it could be if something was added
and/or subtracted. Rashi says that even Shlomo, one of
the greatest men in the history of Bnei Yisroel, said he can
have more than 18 wives and he won’t sin and that he can
have many horses and won’t want to return to Mitzrayim,
and what happened? If someone as great as Shlomo fell by
subtracting, then even more so, we, who aren’t even close
to the level of Shlomo, are able to sin. When the Torah is
referred to as one mitzvah, it shows that we can’t go pick
and choose between the mitzvos. Because the Torah is
referred to as one, it means that we must to ALL the mitzvos
and not just the ones we want to do. The mitzvos are there
to connect us to HaShem and it’s not up to us to do what
and when we want to do them.
News and Views of Torah Academy
January 23, 2015
The Purpose of Doing Mitzvos by Bas-Sheva Heisler
We do the mitzvos and follow the Torah for the sole
purpose of coming closer to HaShem. When I do a mitavah, it
fills me with a sense of accomplishment. This brings me one
step closer to HaShem. The topic in Chumahs really taught
me to practice what is preached, don’t just learn and take a
test. I’ll always hold it with me to learn, review, and then
actually do the mitzvos properly.
“   ”—The Seforno explains that when
one removes the reason for the prohibition, he will soon lose
the entire Torah. I learned that making excuses will not help
you in the long run. While we may not think something will
affect us as a result of doing an aveira, you just never know!
HaShem does what’s best for us; if there’s no reason given
for a mitzvah , it’s obviously not meant for us to question.
“”—The Torah is whole in its entirety. This
showed me that we can’t pick and choose which mitzvos
work for us. We must do    , to fulfill His
. This also can mean, don’t underestimate the power
of one mitzvah. I learned that I can’t just brush away
opportunities to do mitzvos. If a mitzvah comes our way,
no matter how small it may seem, it still has the power of a
seemingly larger mitzvah. Each mitzvah has power!
