This mosaic was commissioned to honor the retirement of Jane Taubenfeld Cohen, the Head of School for two decades. The theme of B'Yachad/Together is symbolically expressed by the two hands reaching upwards.
​
The text that reads 'Create a pure heart for us O God; create in us a steadfast spirit' adds to the overall meaning. The lettering is handmade from clay, glazed and fired.
​
In the white background are many small clay tiles that are glazed various shades of white, all made by the students.
​
The blue border includes hand glazed tiles of symbols relating to school culture.
