The safety of the child comes first, last, and in the middle. Sending them to an "inclusive" school where Israel is vilified and children are subjected to death symbols is NOT inclusive for Jewish children. It is subjecting them to a form of terrorism directed at them. No Jewish kid belongs in that environment.

I literally cannot believe this article doesn't even discuss Jewish schools as an option...did the interviewer even ask?

This is unbelievably sad to me that Jewish schools weren't even a viable option in the minds of these parents...

Hi Hannah, I think these families were not looking for a religious school. They wanted a school that had rigorous academics and their kids would be welcomed being Jewish - catholic schools have a long tradition on both aspects.

The irony is this mom removed her child from an inclusive space (claiming to protect them) while modeling exclusion. Teaching kids to reject kindness and inclusion of others based on where they are from isn't safeguarding values, it's enforcing a prejudiced worldview.

P is for Palestine and a principal and the DOE ignoring this parent is NOT inclusion! P is for Propaganda in this case!
