A new report reveals an 84% surge in security spending at Jewish day schools in four US states following the October 7, 2023, attack on Israel and a rise in antisemitic incidents. The average annual security expenditure rose from $184,228 to $339,297, with security now accounting for 3.09% of the average school's budget. Smaller schools bear a heavier burden per student. The report calls for increased financial support from governments to alleviate the pressure on Jewish families and communities.
