Education Minister Yoav Kisch and Shomron Regional Council head Yossi Dagan have agreed to build a regional elementary school for the renewed Jewish communities of northern Shomron, the first school to go up in the area since the towns there were uprooted in the 2005 Disengagement. It will serve children from Ganim, Kadim and Noa. The school is part of the Reconnection Plan calling for 19 new communities across northern Shomron. Dagan said that after 21 years in which Jews were prevented from living there, everything that was uprooted is being rebuilt, and predicted tens of thousands of residents.
