I really have no idea what goes on in Lakewood and these questions may be naive and certainly are based on ignorance.
Does every elementary school have a high school? Of the elementary schools that do have a high school, do they accept all girls from their elementary schools into their high schools? If not, why not? Is it an issue of “space” (IE, not enough classroom seats for all the high school girls)? If it is space, would opening another school be difficult if the entire community was behind opening another school to avoid this issue? Expanding one or 2 schools? Is it really an issue of to many people wanting to get into specific school(s) because of perception and beliefs about the school? Why is this a problem for girls and not boys? How many high school age boys learn outside of lakewodd for high school? Enough so that it is not a problem? Is it that boys high schools are easy to open because finding rebbeim to say a shiur is easy in lakewood?
It seems that every year this discussion comes up, again. Do the powers that be wait until July of every year to deal with it?
