@MrDanielBuck I went to school in San Francisco, where multiple teachers brought in guest speakers to explain how wonderful Communism is to the kids of primarily Soviet and Chinese immigrants. So, yeah, we knew.
@karr_pe Just going by my experience with NYC, students are automatically enrolled in 9th grade unless they opt out, so those could be "shadow" enrollments, kids who were signed up and never went, but the absence isn't noted until 10th grade.

Moshe Shamah, a Jerusalem-based artist, is coming to New York to show his new series 'To Those Who Fight For Life.' He also happens to be a good friend of mine.
If you'd like to see his art, he's doing an event with @UJAfedNY's Former Soviet contingent.
