Agree. The priority should be educating kids while keeping staff safe, not entertaining parents.


You clearly do not understand the purpose of a father-daughter dance. It is hardly for “entertaining parents.”


Have you ever been to these things. Moms bust it to out volunteer one another as they run the event so the girls can run around in party dresses while the dads stand around talking and playing with their phones. It's a social event for parents.

Is it just for the younger grades? I would think it would just get more and more ridiculous as girls get closer to 8th grade.

I know things happen but it seems that Little Flower School could have done more to control the numbers. Like skipping the Father Daughter Dance last Saturday when the school already had covid cases. So Frustrating


Wasn’t it mainly 3 or so kids in one grade and people needed time to Covid test to go to spring break and holidays soon. So virtual week.

hmmmm... So you are saying that there were only 3 cases in one grade and the entire school went virtual so people could get covid tested and have a jump start on travel/holiday plans? I wonder if all of the families were ok with that decision?

That is not what happened at all. This post is truly unfortunate. As we all know - the latest variant is super contagious. It was about 15 cases and with all the siblings etc and other close contacts the right call was to stop the spread.

County health authorities ordered the school to go virtual for 10 days which happened to fall right before spring break.

Ouch. If this happens at our school (especially if not over a break) because of reckless behavior I will be furious.

This is not true. The county cannot order a school to close. It is against the law.

The school didn’t close, it went virtual. And the ADW mandated it. Get it straight.

Such pansies. The Covid hysteria out here is out of control.

Maybe they overly expanded during pandemic and can't fill those spaces since schools have returned to in person?


I'm not surprised. There is a pre-k and k clique of mean girl moms that are notorious in the community.
Can't say that I would sign up for that brand for 8 years.
Very interesting take on all of this but not sure it fits with the OP's original post

It speaks to the overall culture of the school and how it lead us to the closure.
