Yes, it is. Current family, who has re-enrolled and will stick it out next year. It will be very telling how the negotiations go (assuming the unionization vote passes), and how many teachers return next year. The teachers who are leading the unionization effort really care about MV and the kids that go there, and many of them have worked there for years. My hope is that they will stick it out.

We are leaving MV. We were already considering leaving and but this has made the decision easier. We are in an upper grade so it will be hard for MV to fill our slot. If others do the same it could just be another challenge for the school to deal with next year (either the school will have a smaller budget or will have to integrate more new upper grade kids or will have larger classes in earlier grades).

Im certain mundo will fill it with a 3rd grader who had a Spanish nanny when he was 2 and will “pick it up right away!”

Or maybe a 4th grader who wants that dci slot and doesn’t mind sacrificing two years of learning.

Agree, no issues whatsoever with MV filling those few spots. WL for upper grades, all with 0 spots before 5/1 deadline, high 30’s to 80 at an immersion school nonetheless. People want to get in for DCI who don’t want to move from their EOTP homes.

Those upper grade families leaving, care to share with us where you are going? My bet is private, moving to DEAL zone, or the burbs.

The administration sent an email to parents saying they had hired someone with “deep experience with unions.” I guess that’s true!

How and when are the results of the voting announced?

I would watch Twitter, which will probably be the first to publicize the results. @DCACTS has been active on this (on the pro-union side).

Gotta love those union tactics! This would only be more threatening if it was a rifle scope or a bullseye...

I just found out that the school is saying that the UNION is using the rooms and that's why special needs kids can't access their rooms, even though it's actually mv and the union buster!

Curious where you heard that from the school. I am an MV parent and emailed our executive director with a question about the same incident and have not gotten a response. I would like to follow up. Thank you.

What is the Facebook site y'all are taking about? Btw the non interference email was a parent to parent communication from someone who has been supportive of the teachers. I believe it was fully in good faith to avoid any appearance that could cause people to wisdom the outcome of the election.

I received the parent-to-parent communication about non-interference (and approved of it). I also received an email from Kristin/the administration today about parents not trying to influence the election.

The premise is rather ridiculous. A teacher may respect and want a parent's input on any number of things, but this is a personal decision affecting one's job (no matter how one votes). I cannot imagine anyone voting one way or another beause a parent urged me to.
