In your other post you said it was the whole diocese because the bishop likes the Eagles, in which case you can’t blame St Mary’s for it.

What other post? The schools didn’t HAVE TO give a day off. In a sane world, this would have been a trick and the bishop would terminate any principal who fell for it and took him up on the offer.

You’re so mad about this that you think a better alternative is that a Catholic leader should lie to schools, entrap administrators that believe what he says and follow his instructions, and then fire them for doing so, and you call that the sane option.

Get a grip.

Follow the money. BSSM had a record year in the gala this year according to HSA notes. New fancy bridge to a library with no books. Not to mention a one million PPE loan that was forgiven in 2020. Where does the money go at st Mary’s? Not to teachers and the kids just fall behind. It’s sad and glad we only have 2 more years remaining.

It’s all been downhill since they refused to publish the honor roll.

Youngest is a junior so we have not been there for 3 years, but we were there during COVID and the school administration (and the entire Arlington dioceses), did everything possible to meet families wherever they were in the continuum. They created a fully staffed virtual school, families could opt in to hybrid classes, or attend school in-person. The amount of work that went into prep for and cleaning, etc. during COVID was extensive. My kids missed 2 days of school in March 2020. They did a tremendous job.

There were also two large renovations to the school in the last ten years. That all costs a lot of money.

Second this. Cinalli did an amazing job during COVID. Too bad he left
