GAW: In your first post you made the comment “The author is a Rabbi of a nearby school in Far Rockaway. I didn’t see him offer any spots. Perhaps just like his school is full, other schools are full as well.”
L.11210 Responded: “”I am not sure that parents will want to bus the girls to Far Rockaway.”
GAW responded: “Beggars can’t be choosers.”
First, having had boys who attended yeshiva in Far Rockaway/Bayswater I can attest to the difficulty of busing children there.
Second, I think that this remark is callous and rude. The two major facts are that the yeshiva was fined for not being in a Board of Education approved facility causing an undo financial crisis and that the parents were not informed until August 29 that the school would not open for 2016-2017. These parents are not “Beggars”.
