Municipal leaders blast Education Ministry plan to return students to schools
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe chairman of the Federation of Local Authorities in Israel issues a statement skewering the Education Ministry for the plan it announced this evening to return 4th through 10th grade students to schools.
“The plan presented to us tonight is way out of line and completely detached from reality,” Haim Bibas says. “Students cannot come for one day a week, when others are coming for two days a week.”
“Either open the entire education system or don’t open it at all.”
“I ask all of you to apply all of the pressure necessary so that all children, and all parents, can return to normalcy as soon as possible,” he adds.
