Title: Article: State Weighs Approval of School Dedicated to Hebrew
Body: From http://www.nytimes.com/2009/01/12/nyregion/12hebrew.html?_r=1 State Weighs Approval of School Dedicated to Hebrew By ELISSA GOOTMAN January 11, 2009 Nearly two years after a wave of protests over New York City’s first public school dedicated to the Arabic language and culture, state education officials are expected to consider greenlighting a Hebrew-language charter school in Brooklyn this week. The school would open in the fall if it is approved, first by a committee of the State Board of Regents on Monday and then by the full board on Tuesday. It would begin with 150 kindergartners and first graders and be in District 22, which includes the Sheepshead Bay, Midwood and Mill Basin neighborhoods. The district is 45 percent black, 13 percent Hispanic and 15 percent Asian. It also has a substantial population of Jewish immigrants from Russia and Israel. The State Department of Education staff has recommended that the Regents approve the school, and such recommendations are generally heeded. But at least one regent said he planned to raise questions about the proposal. Read the entire article at http://www.nytimes.com/2009/01/12/nyregion/12hebrew.html?_r=1 .
