The teaching of Hebrew and English for Jewish pupils in the State schools of Baden was introduced over the weekend after the Jewish children had been segregated from the “Aryans.”

Segregation of Jews, ordered under a new decree pending completion of the task of erecting a separate school system for Jews, has so far been completed in the public schools of Heidelberg, Mannheim, Karlsruhe, Freiburg and Bruchsal.

The segregation will be completed throughout Germany by Easter at the latest, it was estimated. While the classes must follow curricula laid out by the State, the Jewish communities must defray the costs of the Jewish classes.

Teachers for the Jewish classes are to be designated by the national authorities from the ranks of Jewish instructors dismissed from State schools under the “Aryan” clause.
