“I attended King David Linksfield for almost my entire schooling, from grade one until my family emigrated to New York in 1977. My love of King David was emphasized by the juxtaposition between the public school I attended in New York for my last two years of high school and my time at King David. I recall with such fondness, the fun I had as captain of the tennis, netball and swimming teams at King David, and participating in the school choir with Mr. Altshuler as the conductor, the special Jewish spirit and cohesiveness that existed at King David and the many friends that I left behind”
