B"H
Dear Colleagues,

I sent this e-mail about a month ago. Perhaps there were technical
difficulties, but I received only two responses from other teachers seeking
the same information. They asked me to pass along any information I
received--but no one wrote back to me.

I know we are all busy, but it would mean a lot to me (and other teachers)
if those in the know could please share. My next step is to contact the
inspectors, but I thought that perhaps, among the hundreds of you out there
in the field, someone might have answers. If not, I'm not sure how anyone
is managing to do English hishtalmuyot...


This information may be extremely obvious to all of you, but, as a somewhat
recent immigrant, it's still a bit of a mystery to me. I'm searching for
answers to the following questions:

1. Is there a centralized website, office, location, etc. where I can find
out about ALL English hishtalmuyot being offered everywhere in Israel, both
face-to-face and online? At the moment, my understanding is that I must
contact each Pisgah individually to get this information. There has to be a
better way. At least, I hope so.

2. The Literature Hishtalmut -- How can I find out when it's being offered,
both face-to-face and online? For whatever reason, my location, though very
central in Israel, has had a dirth of information about this specific course.
Our Pisgah is supposed to know about it but doesn't. I'd inquired about an
online literature course last year and had been told that it did not exist.
I have just recently found out that such courses do, in fact, exist and are
offered frequently. Great! Sign me up! - Where can I get the information?

3. I don't know if you feel similarly, but I find that the spring is a
much, much easier time for me to take hishtalmuyot. Between field trips and
holidays, there are so many canceled classes that I find the load to be
much lighter. I've had a lot of difficulty managing hishtalmuyot in the
fall. My local Pisgah is not offering any hishtalmuyot this spring,
face-to-face or online, despite the fact that they have done so in the past
(with tremendous enrollment). Is there a good way to pin down information
about spring (or summer) hishtalmuyot in particular?

I would be extremely grateful for some clarity on this issue.

Many, many thanks in advance,
Sarah Greenberg
