Petach Tikvah�s Dati Leumi community PTA is calling on city schools to stop their discriminatory policy towards members of Israel�s Ethiopian Jewish community. They explain that 90% of the Ethiopian students are in 5 of the city�s 40 schools, numbering 647 last year compared to 63 students in the others schools, which are �recognized� but not officially part of the public school system.�

Nir Auerbach is seeking to enlist widespread support against what he views as an unacceptable discriminatory practice.
