Snippet:
The current generation of elementary and high school students could be considered a deprived group because their learning has become greatly limited since COVID-19 and with the wars. They have missed many classes, and matriculation exams will undoubtedly cover much less material than usual. Being forced to learn by Zoom or telephone calls and unable to learn in classrooms and meet their friends, Israeli children and teens have suffered and fallen behind.
