Chodesh Tov! May we have quiet; no more rocketing, and may G-d watch
over our boys in harms way. That said, I wish to bring up a concern
that I'm certain many here in the south share with me: Lost hours and
the upcoming winter bagrut exams. Since the beginning of the year many
schools like ours have lost  days due to instructions from  'pikud
ha'oref'' to close school. We all know how many hours fall in a
regular school year what with yud bet pupils investigating options for
army service and sherut leumi . Meanwhile younger pupils (yud / yud
aleph) in all our schools miss lessons due to outings; lectures;
volunteer work; etc. Putting off exams until the summer is not a
viable option with weak and or LD pupils especially when the original
plan was one module in winter and another in summer!!

I just sent out a letter to the 'powers at be' asking the MOE to begin
considering hakalot for our pupils for the upcoming winter bagrut. If
you have a piddling 4 weekly hours like we do at our Ulpana, I'm
certain that you are already feeling the stress to make it to the
finish line prepared. Hence I ask you to consider requesting hakalot
for your pupils. By the way, in the midst of writing this missive, I
had to go to our safe area twice (we have no mamad) due to another 2
sirens and rockets.

May we hear besorot tovot and achieve the quiet that we all so very
truly deserve.

Sincerely,
Esther Revivo
Ulpanat Tzvia Sedot Negev
