The Yeshivot Bnei Akiva movement announced this week that it will open a new Ulpana (girls\' yeshiva high school) next year in the community of Neriah, west of Ramallah. Director Elchanan Glatt announced that the Ministry of Education has approved the new school - this, in order to spare the girls of the 400 families of the Dolev-Talmonim block from having to travel long hours and dangerous roads to other schools around the country. The community of Neriah is named after the late Rabbi Moshe Tzvi Neriah, who founded the Bnei Akiva Yeshiva movement 60 years ago. This will be the 19th Ulpana of the movement, where some 5,000 students study.
