In accordance with agreements reached between the Education Minister, Dr. Yifat Shasha Biton, the director-general of the Ministry Yigal Slovik, and the Health Ministry, the new academic year is scheduled to start on time, from the first preschool grade through twelfth grade.

In order to ensure that as few students and staff as possible are required to quarantine, a huge serological testing program will be implemented in August and September.
