This blog is dedicated to Bais Dovid Alumni who want to share memories, stories and vignettes (not the Rebbe from Phyllis Terrace) that were part of our childhood upbringing. Since most Bais Dovid alumni think that "alumni" means Tiferes Gedalyahu it might shock some to know that if you have learnt in Bais Dovid YOU are a Bais Dovid alumnus. Feel free to post your comments but PLEASE help us keep this blog clean. The blog will be strictly monitored to remove anything that doesn't "pas".

ונשמרתם מאד לנפשתכם
To all our Talmidim עמו''ש,
We would like to remind all of our חשובע Talmidim עמו''ש to wear their 'reflectors'/life strap. For those who are interested there will be reflectors available by the Office (a.k.a. Mrs. Lapidusעמו''ש), at the cost of $1. All proceeds go to צדקה.
These should be worn at all times, especially at night. על פי פסק of R' Nussen Horovitz עמו''ש, it is מותר to wear it on שבת. They are meant to be worn on the shoulder but, if you're a true Monseyer, you will wear it as a belt for your G&G raincoat.
May we hear only בשורות טובות.

Seasonal Post
Since it is already Chidesh Adar, we should really chew over some Adar memories. In the younger grades there would be a Mesiba consisting of Chaim and Yitzchak Tillim. They would come to the lunch room and do their thing....
In the older grades there would be an annual, solemn shmooz from Rabbi Bayer about "simcha un hollelis", he would make sure to mention the danger of masks etc.
We can't forget to mention the twice yearly "raffle stubs" campaign by the famous Rabbi Lichter!! Every grade would have to make more money then the number of the grade (eerily similar to Achashveirosh's seudah and the wine....)

Bais Dovid Pencil Sharpener
This really deserves a post on its own. These sharpeners were screwed in to various places in the classrooms. Since there was a rule by "English" that required every boy to have "three sharpened pencils", they provided sharpeners. Those that still had the covers on them were used to collect the slivers from the sharpened pencils and were then dumped down the backs of the shirts of kids who were being bullied.... There was ONE electric pencil sharpener: in the front office. Those kids who, for the sake of staying out of class, would stand and sharpen pencils (until there was nothing left) usually got whacked by the office door....
