This week we have very exciting news!

Our new House Captains, Jesse Herdan and Jayda Sacks, were selected to lead Rashi to victory over the next year! We are so thrilled to have them as our leaders and cannot wait to see what they have in store.

Over the next year our captains and our Tutor Group are looking forward to keeping Rashi in the number one spot!

Why hear it all from us when you could hear it from our new House Captains! 

How does it feel to be chosen as a House Captain?

Jesse: It’s amazing. I have always looked up at the people leading Rashi and never imagined I would one day get the chance to do the same.
Jayda: This role is a dream come true – I am so excited to contribute and lead the Rashi family, while giving back to the Emanuel community. 

What event are you most looking forward to?

Jesse Herdan and Jayda Sacks

Jesse: House Music without a doubt. It’s going to be great. 
Jayda: Every event is going to be great, but House Music is going to be AMAZING! 

If you could have a superpower, what would it be?

Jesse: Super speed would be so useful. You could go anywhere you wanted pretty much instantly.
Jayda: Flying would be pretty cool! 😉 

What do you think you’ll enjoy most about working with each other?

Jesse: I think the enthusiasm for Rashi that Jayda has will make her amazing to work with throughout the year. 
Jayda: Jesse’s dedication to the roles he takes on will be a great asset to work with.

What are you excited to bring to Rashi?

Jesse: Above all else, I am excited to bring House spirit and hype to Rashi. I want to get every person in the House participating in every event. 
Jayda: I am eager to strengthen Rashi’s sense of community and breed the House’s enthusiasm and spirit. 

If you could travel anywhere, where would you go and why?

Jesse: I would absolutely love to visit the International Space Station. Seeing Earth and space from a completely different point of view would be amazing. Plus no gravity is cool. 
Jayda: Visiting Switzerland is definitely on the bucket list – I’ve always been drawn to its natural beauty and tranquillity.                

Best Rashi memory?

Jesse: The most recent House Music where Jarah broke the stage during Big House. I will never forget that. 
Jayda: Breaking the House Music stage this year – an ICONIC moment to go down in Rashi history.  

Any other comments?

Jesse: I know it. You know it. We all know Rashi is going to win this year. Let’s make it happen. 
Jayda: I am so grateful for the opportunity to get involved in the community and hopefully leave a positive impact within the school and its Rashi students!

So now that you know a little more about our amazing House Captains, we hope you’re as excited as we are to live the next year of Rashi!
