Next year for these students and others
Rents
1) The Al-Bersason school used to collect one hundred dinars annually from the Nuriel school
as rent for the classrooms occupied by the students of this school in the Al-Bersason school building. Since the
Committee is focused on growing the amount allocated for constructing a building for the school, the committee decided to cancel this rent
to add it - along with the surplus of the Nuriel budget - to the amount allocated for constructing a building for this school.
2) As for the rent of the Masouda Salman school, amounting to 175 dinars, it is designated
to repay the amount borrowed from the Council for construction, which is merely a bookkeeping transaction.
( 3 ) Allocations
Our committee has found it necessary to assist the Nom Balm ⟦illegible⟧ school because its revenues are insufficient to cover
expenses and due to a previous deficit, and has allocated an amount of 255 dinars for it in the new budget. Also,
the Menashi Saleh school, which was found last academic year with a deficit of 168 dinars, has ⟦illegible⟧
this year on the basis of covering all expenses without leaving another deficit.
It is necessary to point out that all these matters were completed without ⟦illegible⟧
the school allocations from the Communal Council by any significant increase. The total ⟦illegible⟧ allocations
have now reached 6885 dinars compared to 6075 dinars in the ⟦illegible⟧ past ⟦illegible⟧
