[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our church based preschool announced they are staying closed this year and they have laid off all staff. [/quote]

On no! Can I ask which one?[/quote]

Columbia in falls church[/quote]

Wow! I can’t believe this. Is the daycare portion staying open?[/quote]

I think there are some daycare classes that are still operating, but they have had to lay off some daycare teachers too because the number of children that are still coming is very small. They ended both the morning program and afternoon bilingual program. I’m not sure what happened because the waitlists were always years long. [/quote]

Many of the half day teachers have elementary aged kids and can’t commit to teaching since their kids will be home with them at least 3 days a week. It really sucks for everyone![/quote]

Actually it was a financial decision. Most of the full day kids haven’t returned since they closed in March. Many of the teachers are looking for jobs now. Anywhere would be lucky to have them. Every teacher my kids had there was exceptional. [/quote]
