On October 25, the Riklis family dedicated the Ira & Diana Riklis Family Multi-Purpose Science, Art, Library and Resource Center at the Hagalil Elementary School. The ceremony gave the school's children an opportunity to display their talents and express their gratitude for the wonderful new facility.

The new library and resource center replaces an under-sized library that was built over 40 years ago. The school's 350 students will now be able to use this remarkable multi-purpose facility, which houses a new library and resource center, a science and art center, and four renovated and upgraded classrooms.
