When is Rosh Hashanah?

The Jewish High Holiday begins this weekend.

Rosh Hashanah, the two-day celebration and time of personal reflection that marks the Jewish New Year, begins Sunday, Sept. 16.

"These are probably the holiest of our calendar, and the introspection that takes place at this time is important to us," said Jason Moss, executive director of the Jewish Federation serving the greater San Gabriel Valley. "We need to always contemplate ways we can grow and do better."

If you are looking for ways to spend the holiday, look no further.

Here is a list of services that synagogues in nearby Temple City and Pasadena are hosting:

Pasadena Jewish Temple and Center (1434 N. Altadena Drive, Pasadena)
Sunday — 8 p.m.
Monday — 8:30 a.m.
Tuesday — 8:30 a.m..

Temple Beth David (9677 Longden Ave., Temple City)
Sunday — 7:30 p.m.
Monday — 10:30 a.m.

What are these "organizations that can assist educators in providing an additional incomeRead More source for school supplies?" What are the other "big retailers" besides Staples that are helping teachers with rewards programs? This is a great subject but there is little detail here beyond a link to the Staples program. Would love to read a follow up piece with more useful information.
