to jl #2, First of all that is an inappropriate comment. Even if it was a reform or conservative Jewish shcool I would want them safe. Secondly, I graduated from the Hebrew Academy of MB and highly insulted of what you assume. Presently I am in a “yeshiva” in Nassau county which is considered “black hat” to the standards of the community. As #1 says, it is important to have those drills. I’m sorry that you feel otherwise because the Hebrew Academy is “by no stretch of the imagination considered a yeshiva”.
(Unless you are looking for a shidduch for your daughter, don’t openly judge the students that come out of a particular school/yeshiva).

Although, I am sure this makes a catchy headline, the Hebrew Academy by no stretch of the imagination is considered a Yeshiva. It also is not in session now, making this pointless. It is nice that the city had the drill however, but no yeshivos to my knowledge were involved.
