Extension of the Jewish communal school system in Germany was announced at the official ceremony inaugurating new classes opened by the Berlin Jewish community.

Director Heinrich Stahl, president of the Berlin Jewish community, declared that the Jewish community had in a very short space of time to provide schools for more than a thousand Jewish children. And a further extension of the communal school system was found necessary. The new schools, he said, were to give the Jewish children training for a new, practical life.

The new educational activities of the Jewish community were only beginning, Director Stahl declared. With permission from the government the Jewish community would open new communal schools in various parts of Berlin, he announced.

In the city of Munich, the Jewish community is also making an effort to extend the Jewish school system. A detailed report on the possibilities of the extension of the existing schools and the foundation of new schools is being prepared.
