1. He who pays the fiddler, calls the tune. You want zionist gelt, you have to do what they say.

2. We should develop our own secular curriculum, designed to provide students with job skills without interfering with Torah learning. One possibility would be to “leverage” (take advantage) of what frum students have that secular students usually lack (ability to learn independently and in havrusah, exposure to multiple languages, etc.)

They’re so proud of the secular education here which is dead last in the Western world, that they want to share it with the rest of us.

I would not say the left are idolaters or that evilution will be taught – these are knee-jerk reactions, obviously without thought.

How is a person supposed to understand the world around them? know what steam or ice is and where it comes from? know how the beauty and splendor or cells? or the immune system? or the function of the eye? or the way sound is produced? or why the sun is hot? or how far stars are away? or how photosynthesis works? Rabbi Avigdor Miller knew these things and saw the wonders of G-d in them.

If Bnei Brak has a drop out ratio of 20% (Mishpacha mag – interview with the mayor) – these kids will need to have some skills to work – right?

(I agree with #3)

The impetus for the present introduction of “core” subject into the Charedi school system in Eretz Yisroel is definitely not LeShem Shomiyim.
However being that everything is Hashgocho Protis is there a place for literacy and numeracy for Bochurei HaYeshiva as happens in the US.
