The Sylvia Rosenblatt Hebrew Unschool at Moses Montefiore Synagogue proudly announces that two of its students, Avraham Isaac Jacobs (age 9) and Avraham Zhu (age 10), have earned the Gold and Silver medals, respectively, at the CKids International JewQ Torah Championship.
Competing against over 2,000 students from 26 countries, including France, Australia, Argentina, and Canada, both champions achieved impressive scores of 96% or higher on their final exams. This remarkable accomplishment highlights their dedication and brings immense pride to the Pikesville community.
The championship weekend, held in New Jersey, featured a live game show, a visit to The Ohel (resting place of the Lubavitcher Rebbe), and a trip to the Nickelodeon Universe Theme Park in East Rutherford, NJ. The event culminated with a performance by renowned singer Eli Marcus.
Avraham Isaac and Avraham are exemplary students at the Sylvia Rosenblatt Hebrew Unschool, an Orthodox Sunday program emphasizing Hebrew literacy, Torah study, and joyful Jewish living.
