Yes, it is allowed. Although typically this doesn't happen. There are mixed areas (Jews and Arabs), but most public schools are religious--Jewish, Muslim, Christian, Druze, Bahai, etc. (And the answer below is correct in that most Arab schools--of any religion--are taught in Arabic, while Jewish schools are taught in Hebrew.)

Yes, they are, and there are numerous neuighbourhoods like that. For example, Haifa, that has been seriously bombed in the past several weeks, is a "mixed" town with mixed neighbourhoods. There is also a famous village, called Neve Shalom, where Israeli-Palestinians/Arabs and Israeli Jews live together. It is naturally not the only "mixed" place in Israel but it is special because it has been formed that way by the people in the 1960s, and not developed to be mixed, like most mixed towns and villages.

Reagrding education, there is the problems of language. While the Arab educational system teaches in Arabic, the "Jewish" system teaches in Hebrew. And bilingual schools is a very noble idea. However, there are mixed schools - some (like in the case of Neve Shalom) are an initiative, originally meant to be a bilingual mixed school; some have just developed that way in mixed towns or villages (these are usually Hebrew speaking schools, because the majority, as well as the language of the academe, is Hebrew, and if you want to advance beyond highschool, you'd better speak good Hebrew).
Needless to say, that at the university level, all universities are "mixed" and there are Arab students in all major schools of higher learning in Israel (OK, perhaps not at a rabbinical college ;-)

What the first guy said was not true!
Jews and arabs in Israel live together, the arabs who live inside Israel have Israeli citizenship and they have all the rights jews have, and there are some settlements in which they live together!! I am not talking of course about the arabs that are called by mistake "palestinians" - it's a mistake because Israel was called Palestine 2000 years ago, and the "palestinian" people started crying that they don't have a country only after 1967 - Eygept controlled Gaza and Jordan controlled the other territories, but then Israel won those territories in the 6 day war - and the refugees in those places, not wanted by their counrty of origin anymore - decided they're gonna go for Israel in stead!! why not?? why pay money to set up new roads, cities, or actually make a living by working? no, let's take the small country of Israel, like a pen inside a football court that's called the middle east, which arabs own 22 courties in?? why won't they go to one of those states, in stead of taking the only one that jews have?!? they don't have where to go!! after the hollocost the UN gave them Israel, to live in peace. why can't they, until this day?
So they have a strong army. so what - that is their right, to defend themselves. hundreds of missles evey day - and Lebanon/Hizbollah side started it, by kidnapping the soldiers and then start the bombings. those are the sad facts, let's all pray for them to live in peace - and for the world to stop terror!!

Yes, it's allowed. I lived in Haifa for a year and a half, and in that city, the relationship between the Jewish and Arab citizens is particularly good.
