[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But the blame goes to all of you, too. Where were you? Who organized parents to reopen like in NYC? This has been a huge disappointment. You’d think reading DCUM that plenty of parents are angry and fired up, but there wasn’t any public pressure? A petition, one article in the WaPo, and that’s it?

Are you too scared to stick your neck out?

“ The result: Teachers were applying maximum pressure to stay closed, but there was virtually no public pressure to reopen.”[/quote]

+10000 we need more public pressure & protest, it’s the only thing that seems to work. [/quote]

If public pressure and protest haven't started by now, it might be time to ask yourself why more people don't seem to agree with you that schools should reopen.   [/quote]

Most parents I know were (are) in emergency mode, but expect DCPS schools to start opening in spring. Take your time to read all the 150+ comments on this thread. Believe me, pressure is mounting and will continue to mount if DCPS fails to open schools by 21. [/quote]
