Sarah Danielle Dorman, daughter of Brian and Amy Dorman of Longwood, will be called to the Torah as a bat mitzvah on Saturday, Nov. 8, 2014, at Congregation Beth Am.

Sarah is in the seventh grade at Sanford Middle School where her favorite classes are civics, language arts and drama. Her hobbies and interests include soccer, singing Broadway tunes, reading and watching "Glee."

As part of her bat mitzvah, Sarah will honor Avielle Richman, a 6-year-old who was murdered at Sandy Hook Elementary School two years ago. For her mitzvah project and Project Read, Sarah has collected more than 3,000 books for Pinecrest Elementary School, Pathways to Home and the Sharing Center.

Sharing in the family's simcha will be Sarah's great-grandmother, June Lewin of Boca Raton; grandfather, Henry Lewin of Altamonte Springs; grandparents, Rick and Mira Lawson of Cocoa, and Neal and Adele Dorman of Fern Park.
