Ulpanat AMIT Givat Shmuel was ranked the No. 1 school in that city, according to a recent list published by Madlan, an urban insight company that compiles data including standardized test scores and student reviews of schools across Israel. Givat Shmuel was named the city with the best schools, meaning that Uplanat AMIT is considered the top school in the country, according to the Madlan survey.
The girls’ school received a score of 97, while the average national score is 55.
Judging by the school’s meitzav standardized test scores, the ulpana’s junior high ranks in the top decile for mathematics, science and technology, and Hebrew, and in the 90th percentile for English.
The data, which also takes in account the school’s atmosphere—including school safety, teacher dedication, and other factors—also gave the ulpana high marks.
Madlan compiles real estate data including price trends, school rankings, neighborhood social rankings, and reviews from residents for potential home buyers.
Chanit Freshtand, Ulpanat AMIT Givat Shmuel’s principal, said “the school’s staff works hard to ensure that it is a second home to each student beyond imparting knowledge and academic excellence. We thank the parents and students for placing their trust in us.”
