We send our kids to a martial arts place during the school year, and they provide coverage for those 2 days.

There are also several drop-in childcare places around. Or you could hire a high schooler to babysit your kids. I'm surprised you are having trouble figuring this out, OP.

That is a very privileged response. In years past SACC would remain open the rest of the week. They have hopped on the FCPS “let’s close for all the things” bandwagon and end the last day of school instead of 6/18. (Juneteenth is a Fairfax County holiday, so they were already off that day.)

Yup. I reached out to my county board supervisor. Not that it’ll do anything. Strongly encourage others to do the same nevertheless.

County keeps increasing all taxes and fees (we are SACC full pay, price increases every year) and WTF do we get.

Why would SACC remain open all next day when there is no school? That makes zero sense. It’s not an all day babysitting service. Expecting it to remain open after the last day of school is the height of privilege.

Uh - I don’t use SACC but isn’t the point of SACC to take care of kids. If June 18 is a teacher work day SACC should be open.

And it usually is open. I’m pretty sure this is another change resulting from the 3 hour early releases. They removed 4 days of coverage from the calendar this year to make up for the 8 early releases that SACC personnel now have to come in for.

Another day older and deeper in debt.
