Lamb is closing Monday Feb 3

However that takes effort and it’s easier to do a meaningless, performative gesture that causes parents to suffer.

Have you ever heard of Red Panda? It’s in friendship heights. Ask them to create a no school day class and they will. You will have to pay, but they are great in a pinch. I think they require at least 5 kids…

Reading the time stamps on here, I feel like there is at least one possibly more people posting over and over again. The pace of responses in the short amount of time simply does not make sense given historical trends and pace of responses on this page.

Anyway, we will never know. (And this is a digression but in moments like this I always think of a friend of mine who once confessed to coming on DCurban mom and assuming multiple different “identities” and posting 20+ times per day during her third maternity leave because she was bored)

All that to say I never trust anything I read on here at all anymore.

I won’t debate the day off thing. It’s a conversation that can’t be had with any thoughtfulness over this medium.

I WILL say that the anger on this thread is not consistent with the overall tenor of dialogue in either of my children’s class WhatsApp groups OR in the ParentSquare app OR in the many friend groups.

I will ALSO say that I feel very sorry for the person who feels this much anger to their child’s school and I’m truly baffled why they keep sending their kid there. You will put up with 8 years of a school you hate for a semi-decent middle school that has many of the same shortfallings?

There are many things to be said about LAMB, but our family has found the community to be kind and loving in a way that is so very needed in this world. If that’s not what you value in a school, there are other places to go.

Imagine what would happen if LAMB announced it was closing for a month in protest of racism. What do you think would happen? I'll tell you what would happen. There would be a bunch of parents taking to ParentSquare to talk about how proud they are of the school to take a stand against racism and how this is a minor sacrifice in the cause towards eradicating racism. There would be a whole bunch of other parents who would seethe in private because wouldnt dare say anything because if they complained, they would be seen as racist. The same thing is happening here.

There are thousands of hypotheticals that you could come up with, some of which would be very interesting to engage and unpack in person, none of which are worth the calories of engaging with on this medium.

None of them matter, because at the end of the day, no one is forcing you to send your child to LAMB. Literally by definition you have other choices.

I always hate these threads on LAMB because, again, there are a handful of parents who just seem super disgruntled and unhappy, regardless of what LAMB does. I have met a few of these parents in real life, and I always find them self-righteous and entitled. I always wish they would leave the school community and either go to their local DCPS school (where there is no way they would get the amount of indulgence that they get at LAMB) or a private school (which is what I think they want LAMB to be).

As for the day off on Monday, I had three different offers from friends to watch my kids or do rotating play dates. There is a real community there, but you have to be willing to actually engage with the community, and not just complain to the administration all the time about how much you hate the school.

Omg stfu. I will say I am not a LAMB parent, but as an outsider, it is obviously completely absurd and wrong to close school with no notice, unless it was some sort of facilities emergency. The PCAOB should have policies in place to prohibit this kind of conduct.

Wow you sound so inclusive and warm! “if you disagree with us, then gfto and go back to your IB school.”

I hate to bring it up, but this is an extremely concerning attitude in light of what happened with LAMB and the child abusing teacher, where any dissent and concerns were suppressed.

I think you've inadvertently provided an example of the liberal intolerance that pervades LAMB.

Pretty sure there are just the same 2 to 3 people posting on this thread in a constant back and forth but it is fun to watch!

LAMB has become like BASIS in terms of its lovers and haters.

Grab the popcorn!

Even grosser is the reaction of some self appointed suck ups to levite desperate parents on why this is an important lesson for us to learn.

I will Netflix and Chill in support of immigrants.

Well yay for you but that's a poor substitute for an instructional day.

Will LAMB be revising its calendar and extending the school year to meet the 180-day requirement?

What in here is liberal intolerance? I don’t care about people’s politics and I actually stated no opinion about whether I thought closing school on Monday was a good idea or not. I actually do find it annoying, but it tracks with everything else that LAMB has always done.

My point was just I find some of the parents to be super entitled. They constantly have a tone of disgust for the school, they complain without offering to engage on solutions, and they expect the school to cater solely to them and their families. It is always them vs the school.

Nothing to do with politics, I just think that if you have that attitude at any type of school that’s private, you will never be happy. I personally try to avoid those parents because they are just exhausting.

I dunno, maybe it's all the character assassination and personal attacks? There is a substantive issue here that you're completely ignoring.

OK but are the classes taught by immigrants?
