New Old Court Lower School
In the beginning of the 2007-2008 school year, construction began for the new Beth Tfiloh Dahan Lower School on the school's Old Court Campus.
The Old Court Lower School was completed in December 2008, and the Lower School students moved in on January 5, 2009. There was a procession as well as a ribbon cutting by founder, Haron Dahan and benefactor, Marvin H. Weiner, who chaired the construction committee. Students were escorted to the new Lower School by Beth Tfiloh Middle and High School students and were greeted by members of the Beth Tfiloh Congregation and School leadership and various public officials. The new Lower School is connected to the existing Beth Tfiloh Dahan Community School complex and includes a gymnasium, library and a cafeteria, together with classrooms and other amenities that existed on its Glyndon Campus.

Famous quotes containing the words court and/or school:
“We went on, feeding the hungry, giving drink to the thirsty, clothing the soldier, binding up his wounds, harboring the stranger, visiting the sick, ministering to the prisoner, and burying the dead, until that blessed day at Appomattox Court House relieved the strain.”
—M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)
“I never went near the Wellesley College chapel in my four years there, but I am still amazed at the amount of Christian charity that school stuck us all with, a kind of glazed politeness in the face of boredom and stupidity. Tolerance, in the worst sense of the word.... How marvelous it would have been to go to a women’s college that encouraged impoliteness, that rewarded aggression, that encouraged argument.”
—Nora Ephron (b. 1941)
