Public school may sometimes start before jewish schools, but they end way before. And our school days are much longer than Public school days. So don't use public school as a comparison. |
Public schools in NYC ALWAYS ends later than the Jewish schools.

My girls thankfully started today in a chassidish monsey school. Elementary.
IDK if OP is talking about elementary or HS but I don't think it matters. BR always prided themselves on being highly academic, pushing school, more hours than others, with Regents so they need to pack it in. What's this suddenly starting so late? I was very surprised when I heard from my nieces that they're starting elementary on Tuesday.
It's simple: BR became a school with no oversight. There's no kehilla or Rav or Rebbe or even a strong Vaad behind it anymore, so they can do what they want and STILL have people banging down their doors to get in.

There are some people that pull the strings and that's that.
Don't worry, there's a day of reckoning for all.

I still did not get a single valid reason or benefit of starting school later rather than earlier.
My question remains, WHY ?? Why the sudden change this year and what for?
Just the fact that a different school starts later does not answer the above question.

No they're not. They're paid for with my taxes.

I did give you an answer. It's not for your benefit. It's because the school can do whatever they want. End of story. I'm truly sorry. I'm in the same boat.

Not only is it not free, it is going to go up with 5% soon.
We basically pay tuition twice, once for our kids and another tuition for the public school kids.
Of course all illegal Hispanics and other elements that rent, are not paying a penny for school or for their super expensive bilingual teachers that they are entitled to.

I am talking about regular Cheder Chabad girls school. They had orientation this week, but their first day of school is on Monday next week.
I asked about the newer Chabad school. The boys Cheder starts Rosh Chodesh Elul every year. The girls school started late last year and this year, solely due to the new location.

Public school is open for everyone. Whoever wants free schooling, can send there. Private school is technically a luxury in the greater world.

So clean your own house, don't take an income, apply for free insurance, free food, free phone and send to free school.
