NYC says 18 yeshivas failing to teach secular subjects in accordance with state law
After eight-year probe, city's Department of Education report finds private Hasidic schools don't provide 'substantially equivalent' education to public schools

New York politicians who have courted the Orthodox Jewish vote, including former mayor Bill de Blasio, have been accused of turning a blind eye to yeshivas for political gain.
As of 2020, there were around 160,000 students studying at about 450 yeshivas in New York State. YAFFED has projected that by 2030, 30 percent of Brooklyn schoolchildren will be ultra-Orthodox, nearly all of whom study in yeshivas. Non-public New York schools receive hundreds of millions of dollars in government funding.
Oh yeah, I have to throw in three sentences ... new rule by some jeenyus .... probably Hasisidic ...
