According to Elad resident Asher Schnitzer, his daughter, who is entering first grade this Elul, was not accepted to a Chinuch Atzmai school as she should be because Deputy Mayor Rav Yisrael Porush and his office manager Yishai Klein are taking revenge against him for “daring” to open a kindergarten that competes with Porush’s kindergarten system. Schnitzer insists the official response that there is no space in the first grade is simply not a reflection of the true situation.

Kikar Shabbat reports that some officials add that the registration request was after the deadline but Schnitzer responds, explaining he knows “for a fact” of other families that registered after he did and their children were accepted, rejecting the validity of that response.

Schnitzer turned to Mo”etz Rav Menachem Mendel Spern and received permission to turn to authorities on behalf of his daughter as the new school year approaches. The rav explains that since the opening of the school year is imminent he permits Schnitzer to turn to authorities as time is critical.

As such, Schnitzer has turned to the state judicial system in the hope of adjudicating the matter in the coming days. Kikar Shabbat reports that Rav Porush and his assistant were unavailable for comment.

    Yes! you want to enjoy the perks of belonging to a frum kehila?, ie. having good chinuch for your childre etc. You must be a normal upstanding committed member of the kehila, if you are just an evil force trying to uproot the pillars that a kehila stands on you have NO right to demand a place in the mosdos of a kehila that you are trying to destroy.

    To rotzachto;
    How true. If you are unwilling to let builders and corrupt politicians have their way and allow crime, corruption and high taxes that crush the majority of the families living in a kehila----as long as said leeches play ball and rubber stamp whatever some camera -shy puppet master orders, then, you are an evil force and your kids can go to hell.
