Tel Aviv Mayor Ron Huldai Visits Hand in Hand

We recently had the honor of welcoming Tel Aviv Mayor Ron Huldai and council members Abed Abu-Shahda and Lisa Hanania to our school in Jaffa. The guests received a tour of the facilities, talked with us about the importance of bilingual education in Israel, and even got to meet some of our students.

One of our kindergarteners described Mayor Huldai’s visit: “A tall man came to visit us, we sang the alphabet for him in both languages, and then he taught us how to say ‘mayor’ in Arabic.”

Many thanks to Mayor Ron Huldai and council members Abed Abu-Shahda and Lisa Hanania. It was an honor to host you, and we hope you come again soon!
