Due to Finance Ministry cuts in funding, 3,000 teenage females are being dropped from the Sheirut Leumi roster, representing about one-third of the Sheirut Leumi force.
Ironically, with constant calls in the non-frum community for the Shabbos-observant community to serve the country, here, 3,000 women opting to serve the country because they will not serve in the military, are being sent home.
Compounding the situation even more is the realization the 3,000 were to be stationed in the nation’s schools, where they serve as tutors, teachers assistants and in many other capacities, picking up the slack in development towns and areas where they are short of staffing and/or funding.
The realization that this force of 3,000 was just cut from the roster will present many difficulties for many already ailing schools.
