FAREWELL PARTY TO PARDES STUDENTS IN BEIT SHEAN VIA VIDEO

Three students from Cleveland’s Pardes High School: Shayna, Carly and Marissa, stayed in Beit Shean for 2 exciting weeks. Their farewell party was held at the Cleveland House in Beit Shean, on Israel’s Independence day, with their real families in Cleveland and their hosting families in Beit Shean, via videoconference.

The videoconference was very emotional. The real and the adopting parents hugged each other via video, and thanked each other for the special opportunity to host 3 wonderful girls from Cleveland during these challenging times. The families vowed to stay in touch and continue their new relationships.
