Religious Kindergarten – teacher wrapped in shawl • "We do not care"

Is the shawl phenomenon also reaching the religious community?

A woman dressing with a shawl is serves as a kindergarten teacher in a kindergarten belonging to the Religious Zionist public in Jerusalem, reported newspaper Yedioth Jerusalem.

The teacher comes every morning to the kindergarten wrapped in a shawl and after she enters the kindergarten she takes it off. In the afternoon, when she finishes her work, she returns to cover herself from head to toe.

The teacher's dress code does not create resistance from the management of the kindergarten or the parents, who refer to her naturally. According to the director of the kindergarten there is nothing unusual in hiring her, particularly in light of the fact that during working hours she does not wear the shawl. "Outside people can dress as they wish, this teacher is very good in the children and that's what matters. We respect her."

The kindergarten security who met the teacher for the first time six months ago did not know she was supposed to work in the kindergarten and didn’t allow her to enter, "only when another teacher told me that "she is one of our staff", I realized that she belongs to the educational team", he said.

Parents also strengthen the position of the management. One of the mothers said that there is a valued and very much loved staff at the kindergarten. "They do their work charmingly," says the mother. I do not exactly care what this teacher does outside of work hours."
