I always thought that teachers had it very nicely with that door-to-door perk, but frankly, I thought it was good for many many reasons.Joshnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-91266842872853649012013-08-24T21:05:19.157+03:002013-08-24T21:05:19.157+03:00A lot of the yeshiva high schools are "amutot...A lot of the yeshiva high schools are "amutot" and don't get full support from the government. That's the big problem. I stopped teaching English in one, because I could no longer handle the difficult lack of transportation. In govt schools the govt provides transportation to teachers in rural areas when there aren't direct buses.Batyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09402874037427009327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-40885673225158761672013-08-23T10:22:16.029+03:002013-08-23T10:22:16.029+03:00lollolcheap jerseys usahttp://www.nflsportsale.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-51375187588165833072013-08-23T00:13:41.479+03:002013-08-23T00:13:41.479+03:00I seem to see that the government really does save...I seem to see that the government really does save a lot of money on the Haredi/religious sectors. There used to be dati high schools, but the reduced quality scared away many datiim to yeshivot tichoniot and mamad high school closed down. The yeshivot have a lot more independence but the cost is high, and after the recent Lapid-Bennet cuts, they will have to cut back on hours and lay-off teachers. Isn't it time for the dati and haredim to retake the high schools the government should be providing?Joshnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-21046408492349903702013-08-22T19:53:44.459+03:002013-08-22T19:53:44.459+03:00Agreed, the government should fund this!

These schools cost more because the kids learn more - a lot of Torah plus they need excellent English and math teachers who can cover the curriculum in the limited hours on a high level, they need top-notch rebbes or kids will not want to come, they need to pay for three meals a day because the boys eat there (school is from 7:30 am - 8:30 pm....) But then again, it is a good investment because it costs a lot later on to go to a catch-up program before you can even begin higher education...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
