    I would venture to say that some of the people commenting here are young and did not have any first hand experience dealing with high schools here in Lakewood ,Its a disaster even for people like myself that are outwardly chasidesh/Yeshivish. Most people here in Lakewood/Brooklyn have their heads buried in the sand just like we will never tackle the problem of poverty/tuition we will never tackle the school problem. The state of our community is very dire and one big disaster, we have a massive parnasah crisis large families low incomes expensive lifestyles and no one is addressing this disaster we are all burying our heads in the sand are we waiting until the FBI will come and arrest 90% of our community for fraud???.

    Our whole system is a complete financial wreck large families,low incomes,huge tuition bills/widespread fraud for all the programs and everyone is silent. I am so discouraged that we are not tackling any of these problems heads on,we have the brain power but we are not doing anything.

    Please dodnt get me wrong I am bh making a nice parnasah but I am very frustrated seining all my siblings struggling with large families while still in kollel here in Lakewood,I am not sure I know of any hlaacha in the torah instructing us all to be poor without ever learning a parnasah that will give us some financial security.

    The unfortunate reality is that this whole school situation in Lakewood is completely unacceptable if this would be an out of town school then every child would be accepted and appreciated, its time to get out of Lakewood it has gotten way too big and out of control. The only way to get into a Lakewood school is either be extremely yeshivish or extremely rich otherwise your children dodnt deserve to get a Jewish education because ur not learning full time until you 95.
