My mistake: The Litvish yeshivos offer less than 3 hours/day (12 hours/week).
Darchei Torah, for example, 7th grade secular studies begins at 2:30 and ends at 5:15. And they have breaks in between. Four days a week. That’s less than 10 hours/week of class time.
That’s Darchei Torah that does much better than NYC public schools. And, yet, NYSED wants to force them to almost double their secular time to 17.5 hours/week. Under the newly clarified regulations today.
