Brief:

The school was founded in 1948 in Jerusalem to serve the Palestinian Society, and started as a dormitory to embrace the orphans who lost their parents and take care of them. It was opened as a school in 1967, and the dormitory was closed in 2011.

The school is private, for boys only. The building consists of 4 floors and a basement. It contains a computer lab, a science laboratory, a praying room, and an emergency exit staircase. The school has modest yards for the students but no playgrounds. The school provided a playing area for the kids to seperate them from the elder. There is a possibilty to make use of the school roof to make a yard for the elder, after providing fences and cover for it.
