David Portnoy, Yavneh head of
school for the past seven years, has
been named the new head of school
of the Dr. Miriam and Sheldon G.
Adelson Educational Campus (AEG)
in Las Vegas. Portnoy will begin at
AEG in July 2019. He will continue
at Yavneh through June 2019. AEG is
a community Jewish school serving
students ages 18 months to 18
years, with 450 students enrolled in
preschool through grade 12.
“Serving the Yavneh and Dallas
Jewish communities these past seven
years has been an extraordinary
privilege and pleasure, in large part
because of the opportunity to meet
exceptional people such as yourself,
as well as hundreds of students,
parents, alumni, donors and other
community members,” Portnoy
wrote recently in an email to the
community.
These tax-deductible contributions
benefit five institutions, located in the
United States, Israel, Argentina and
Germany, that educate Conservative
rabbis, cantors and teachers.
For information and to make
reservations, contact Elaine Scharf,
Beth Torah Sisterhood’s Torah
Fund chair, at 972-307-3521 or email

Both honorees have led services,
held positions on the Synagogue
Board and lend their voices to the
congregation’s volunteer music-
makers for the monthly Friday
evening “Joyful Noise” service.
Said Leventon: “Our goal is to
create community, to give parents
and other adults the opportunity to
engage with their kids in a Jewish
setting.”
Added Winter: “It’s amazing to
watch the children get comfortable,
knowing who they are and where
they are with a ‘family’ of teachers
and friends.”
The Beth Torah Sisterhood’s
Torah Fund tradition began a
quarter of a century ago, with the late
Esther Cohen as its first honoree. Her
daughter Robyn Rose was honored
last year. Tradition also dictates that
the most recently honored woman
chairs the annual event, with all past
honorees serving as the committee.
All are welcome to attend the
2018 event. Cost is $25 for the
synagogue brunch at 720 Lookout
Drive, Richardson. In addition, a
minimum contribution of $18 to the
Torah Fund of the Women’s League
of Conservative Judaism is required.
Dr. Ahamed Idris of UT Southwestern will speak
about the treatment of cardiac arrest and will discuss
his current Resuscitation Research.The program will
include a hands-only CPR practice session.

Congregation Beth
Torah’s Sisterhood will
fete two young members as
this year’s Joint Torah Fund
Honorees,
their work to enhance and
expand opportunities for
the synagogue’s youngest
members.
Rachel Leventon and
Jessica Winter will be
honored at noon Sunday,
Feb. 10, at a dairy brunch
in Beth Torah’s newly
remodeled social hall.
Leventon and her husband,
Isaac, 13-year Beth Torah members,
are parents of Caleb, 8'/2; Miriam,
6'/2; and Shira, P/2. Winter and her
husband, Douglas, are parents of
Noah, who became a bar mitzvah
at Beth Torah last summer, and
Kaitlyn, who will mark her bat
mitzvah in June 2020.
Leventon, an Alabama native,
met her future husband when both
were counselors at a Jewish camp
in Georgia. They married after he
received his law degree from the
k NORTH DALLAS
M BANK&TRUSTCO
University of Texas at
Austin. They’ve lived in
Richardson since 2006 and
now live Just a half-mile
from Beth Torah.
Winter, originally from
Bridgeport, also had Jewish
experience.
Trained in accounting and
administration, she came
to Dallas in 1993 for her
continuing management
career in copier sales
and service. She and her
husband met the “modern”
way, through computer
dating, and live in Plano.
The two women have
worked closely together on innovative
programming for young children.
Beth Torah’s initial “Tot Shabbat”
has grown to include services for even
the very youngest members on High
Holidays and Sukkot. The Hand-
in-Hand initiative is offered on two
Sundays each month for babies,
toddlers and pre-kindergartners.
This program incorporates arts and
crafts, music, movement and Jewish
stories and traditions. Membership
in Beth Torah is not required for
participation.
