SAY NO TO THE NYS EDUCATION DEPARTMENT'S PLAN TO CONTROL PRIVATE SCHOOLS - NEVER BEFORE DONE IN ANY STATE

The State Education Department has proposed new regulations to control all private schools, including Yeshivas.

While this effort was thrown out by the NYS Supreme Court following lawsuits brought by Agudath Israel, PEARLS, and Torah Umesorah this past April, this is another attempt.
This time, the law requires a comment period for citizens to weigh in.

These regulations are similar to the previous Guidelines: dictating about a dozen secular subjects our Yeshivas must teach, for how long (4-5 hrs./day), and will give local public school districts the authority to approve or shut down our schools.

Results, grades, competencies, graduation rates, or other factors regarding equivalency to public schools are not taken into account for these purposes.

The proposed regulations are opposed by the vast majority of private schools and parents across the state.

Take action TODAY against these overreaching regulations.
