Chag Samech,

I would like to say that working with these kids is not an easy task (11 or
less).Each one of them is in a different level , each one gets his own
booklet and works at his own pace. They all have learning disabilities and
different accommodations that they should get and each one needs (or else he
can't/won't  work) special attention. In addition as you could see some have
behavioural problems .

What they do in Branco Weiss is a gift to these kids that in any other
school won't last a month. Some end up with Full Bagrut , some with less but
most important they have some value of achievement of themselves which in my
opinion as an educator is not less important or even the most important
achievement of all.
