Publications

Ma’ayanot students produce several publications over the course of the year, with the help of faculty advisors.
 

Ma’ayanei Torah is a holiday journal of Torah articles written by students and faculty, which is published before each holiday and is distributed to synagogues throughout the tri-state area.

Mihutz Lakufsa is Ma’ayanot’s Hebrew newspaper, in which students write in Hebrew about a variety of topics, including important events in Israel, famous people who interest them, and personal experiences. Mihutz Lakufsa also features riddles, games, a bulletin board, and a dictionary of Hebrew slang.

Sambatyon, Ma’ayanot’s award-winning literary journal, provides opportunities for students to develop their strengths in writing, editing, layout, and publishing. Sambatyon features poetry, short stories, and artwork by our students. Students with artistic strengths are essential in executing and selecting artwork. The literary journal appears at the end of May, but production efforts take place throughout the entire school year.

The Source is Ma’ayanot’s student newspaper, which provides a forum for students to exchange ideas and voice opinions about issues of both general and local interest. Students contribute to the newspaper through writing, reporting, researching, editing, photographing, marketing, and layout design.

Yearbook: Each year the senior class devotes enormous amounts of time and energy to produce a yearbook that serves as a written record of the four high school years. The yearbook provides an opportunity to for students to express their literary, artistic, and photographic talents, and to develop journalistic, business, editing, and leadership skills.

In addition to the publications that our students produce, Ma’ayanot sends out a weekly online newsletter, The Stream, which is a joint student/faculty production that features articles, photos, and videos representing highlights of academic and co-curricular life at Ma’ayanot.
