Girl suspended from Charedi school after celebrating Bat Mitzvah...Yoi! Her Grandfather was there? Yoi!!!!!!

 

Hadar, the Bat Mitzvah girl


Hadar, a 12-year-old student at a Charedi school in Ashkelon, was suspended after, according to the school, her Bat Mitzvah celebration violated school policy. According to Kan News, since then nearly two weeks, the school administration has not allowed her to return to class.

According to the girl's mother, the event was organized per the school's strict code, with strict kosher supervision and a female photographer, DJ, and waitresses. She says the trouble began in the middle of the event when the Hadar's friends began to leave early. "During the party, there was a commotion because the party was supposed to end at 9:30 PM. I explained the problem to the assistant principal that I already had invited people for a specific time, and I couldn't change it. The whole point of having a party for only girls is so her classmates could come."

Hadar recounted, "I was sad, I cried, I told my friends the principal wouldn't do anything, don't worry, stay. Some said, 'You're right,' they stayed, and some left."

Two days later, Hadar, a sixth grader at the Netzach Israel school in Ashkelon, received a letter notifying her that she would not return to class until her mother signed the letter admitting that she was wrong. According to the school, the party continued past the accepted time, the songs played at the event were not from the approved list, and several male relatives, including Hadar's father and grandfather, were present.

The school's principal claims that "the girl's mother keeps refusing to sign the letter she received after she violated several articles of the school's code."

The Ashkelon Municipality stated: "It was made clear to the student's mother that she can return to school, but she chose not to."

You know who's at fault? The girl's parents for desperately wanting her to be in that school.

I definitely feel for this girl who is being kept out of school through no fault of her own. While I would say the schools rules are debatable the parents can get her back in right away if they would just admit that they went against school policy

Sometimes we are so focused on being in a school we forget to make sure it's a healthy place with good hashkafos. Often it's there for the sake of the "owner" be it for kavod or financial reasons. Seeing non hipster normal parents home school their children and it's no wonder that Frum online schools like JOS are being used by kids on NY and NJ now too. No longer just for children living in far out places.

I don't think that taking the issue to the media will do the girl any good, both now and later.

We live in a world of form over substance.
More important to embarrass the girl than overlook and not punish her for listening to her parents.This is the new frumkeit ??
Now all these pseudo jewish leaders want to know why we have so many OTD kids.Well great people just look in the mirror.
