House ed panel to hold hearing on ‘drivers’ of Jew-hatred in K-12 schools A spokesman for the House committee told JNS that 'outside groups' that celebrated Oct. 7 are partnering with local schools.

(JNS) The House Subcommittee on Early Childhood, Elementary and Secondary Education, which is part of the House Committee on Education and Workforce, plans to hold a Sept. 10 hearing on antisemitism in K-12 schools.
