Week 4: April 6-7, 2k20

Hey #Davis8, as we near Passover Break, I want you to think about what you are grateful for.  Many of us are unable to meet family and friends for seder.  This is sometimes the one time of year when you see certain family members, neighbors, or friends.  I hope that you are able to do something with your families whether physically together or digital!  Chag Sameach!
