I graduated from BYHS in 2008. I was talking to someone tonight and she mentioned that Rebbetzin Schweitzer a"h, who was related to her, had been niftar a few years ago, but I hadn't known. It got me wondering about other teachers we had... are any of them still teaching at BYHS? Which ones have passed on?

As an 11th grade student I attended levayas for 2 of my teachers, Rebbetzin Yudkowsky and Rebbetzin Hirschberg. And in 12th we went to Rabbi Hellman's levaya.

But now I'm wondering about my other teachers... where are they now?

What about Rebbetzin Weissler?
The 12th grade Chumash teacher from England. I can't remember her name. Oh wow this is really taking me down memory lane

I'm so glad I started this thread! I'm enjoying this trip down memory lane. For those who just wrote a list of names, are they still teaching in BYHS?

Op, you’re a year ahead of me. I remember those levayas.
Wow, I didn’t know Rebetzin Schweitzer passed away.
We had so many legendary teachers. Most of the Hebrew department was older, even elderly. They had decades and decades of experience.
Mrs. Greenwald left.
Is Mrs. Abramowitz still there?
