Shiriya Over the years, The Frisch School has become famous for its annual week-long Shiriya. Each year countless parents and friends of the school spend an exciting last evening of Shiriya touring the school corridors, which are decorated in a meaningful and beautiful way, and watching and enjoying our students’ singing, dancing, and Ru’ach. But Shiriya is not just a celebration of Frisch spirit, not just an excuse for us all to have some fun—actually lots of fun—in the middle of the school year, not just a midwinter night’s color war. Shiriya is an integral part of the intellectual, religious, and communal life of the nearly eight hundred students and adults who spend their days at Frisch. It is a multi-disciplined program with a religious theme in which every single student in the school participates and during which our students have the opportunity to develop and demonstrate their Torah knowledge and musical and artistic skills, and, just as important, their leadership, their ability to work as a team, their unparalleled school and class spirit.
