5,000 Yeshiva Students will now enroll in East Ramapo Public Schools to teach them a lesson


The Advocate, a Monsey based newsletter, reports that Yeshivah parents will enroll their children into the Public School System of East Ramapo this coming fall, thereby increasing the budget. The rough estimate is about 5,000 yeshiva students that would enroll, leaving school officials scrambling for resources. This would require 175 new classrooms, and 200 new teachers would be needed. Special classes like ESL, would also be required for the school year.
It was reported that if every private school student enrolled in the public schools, the budget would be increased an additional $525 million. Another half a billion would need to be allocated to house the students in buildings.
