A Shevah student won a silver medal at an international junior software engineering olympics in Zagreb, Croatia on August 21, 2007, several students won medals on the International Mathematical Olympiad including the gold medal by Lev Buhovsky in 1996 and several silver and bronze medals on the Asian and the International Physics Olympiads. Shevah Mofet has attracted many Russian visitors, notable figures such as Sergei Brin, one of the creators of Google, and Mikhail Gorbachev, the former Soviet president. On June 1, 2001, an Arab suicide bomber killed 21 Israeli teenagers in the Tel Aviv "Dolphi" discothèque. Seven of the victims were from the Shevah Mofet high school, with more injured. The bombing created an international outrage, but also caused many Jewish communities worldwide to donate money to Shevah Mofet. This helped improve the financial situation of the school and create a new library and cafeteria. In November 2002, it was discovered that the school cafeteria served expired, or otherwise bad food products. It created a citywide scandal, where the media (newspapers such as Yedioth Ahronoth and Maariv) were involved, as well as the health ministry. Despite this, the cafeteria was still operating and employing the same workers in a repeat check-up in August 2003. Organization For many years, Shevah Mofet was a 6-year school organized into a junior-high school (grades 7–9), and a secondary school (grades 10–12). In 2007–08 however, a new organization was introduced, and the school was split into 3 two-grade sub-sections. The secondary school has five departments, each focusing on a specific subject. In order of introduction, they are computers, business administration, robotics, electronics, and Biotechnology. Each department has one class, for a total of 5 classes per year.
