In line with the general strike called by the Histadrut, the Teachers Union, a branch of the Histadrut, announces that all K-12 schools in Israel will be open only until 11:45 a.m. tomorrow, except schools for special needs kids.
A similar notification, sent by the union’s early childhood director, says that all kindergartens will be completely closed on Monday, except for special needs centers.
A high school teachers’ strike that began on Sunday, unconnected with the national labor stoppage, will continue on Monday, the Secondary Schools Teachers Association announced in an earlier statement.
