The one and only Jennifer Silverman is from Los Angeles, CA. She had the privilege of studying at Bnos Devorah High School in LA and an amazing year and a half at Michlalah. She is currently a senior at Stern College for Knowledge, majoring in Psychology and minoring in Biology. She hopes to go on to study Occupational Therapy and better the world.
Jennifer was actually a camper on Michlelet once upon a time and is ecstatic to be back! She hopes to give all 132 girls the same life-altering experience she had!
The girls in Jennifer’s homeroom are Hannah Mendeles (Teaneck, New Jersey), Michaela Fiederer (Philadelphia), Eyliana Perkal (Woodmere, New York), and Gavriela Weindruch (Iowa).
Jennifer’s Chaburah is called “Shirim B’Tanach” which focuses on the different lessons one can learn from the different songs that appear in Tanach. She strives to inspire her girls with the different songs that are not necessarily covered in the school curriculum, such as the power of Shir Shel Yom and the different shirim sang by important female role models. Jennifer hopes that her girls will be able to gain many personal lessons from their learning together and understand these beautiful pieces of Tanach in depth.
What’s your favorite Israeli ice cream bar and why?

Eyliana Perkal: SpongeBob Ices because it’s delicious, the eyeballs are actually gum, and you can sing the SpongeBob theme song while eating it.
Hannah Mendeles: The Chip-Which because of the perfect ratio of cookie to ice cream.
Michaela Fiederer: The Chocolate Crunch Bar with Hazelnut Core because it hits the spot every time!
