    A spokesperson for the school stated they will try to remain open after Passover by trying to find a company who will provide them with a policy, reports Haaretz (http://bit.ly/1NBBsn3).

    The spokesperson continued to say that European governments need to make protecting Jews in their countries a top priority and that not insuring a kindergarten
    based only on the fact that its Jewish should sound “alarms” for Europe’s leaders.

    The recent high volume of anti-Semitic attacks in Europe has sparked insurance companies to deem Jewish institutions as high risk.
