Better give those families special treatment.....or else!

So disgusting.

In-person school 5 days per week is special treatment?! LOL[/quote]

OPEN SCHOOLS NOW is irrational, special treatment

[/quote]

That’s your opinion, and you’re entitled to it. Just like those with means are entitled to leave an average (at best) school system. Unfortunately, their departure will have a negative impact on your school’s resources. Equity isn’t so great when it means everyone has equal access to a sh!tty product.[/quote]

We should be making decisions for the greater good, not just to cater to "the hands that feeds you".

That was the whole point of the initial comment. It wasn't about opening schools for everyone. It was opening schools OR ELSE.

As if the 2 day vs. 5 day in person would even make a difference to most of those people.

Of course the schools should be open for everyone. What a ridiculous comment.

I’m a big believer in natural consequences. My kid doesn’t want to wear a coat? Fine, but it’s not my problem when you get cold.

Don’t want to open schools? Fine, but don’t be shocked when those with the resources to do so end up leaving. The question is: who remains? Plenty of very nice families, but unfortunately very few with the means to contribute financially to the schools in any meaningful way. (And some of you complain when your school is 50% FRL. What’s that school going to be like when that changes to 80-90%?)[/quote]

Our entire PTA has practically been wiped out. I'm learning of new families leaving APS every day. Not all are going private, many are moving in with their families where school is open full time. [/quote]

Yes, the pandemic has really had a big impact on education and families.

BUT that doesn’t mean we ignore CDC guidelines and prematurely fill our schools.

We are also homeschooling this year and next. Potentially longer if it goes well. DL has been a disaster and with all of the wealthy families leaving, these schools are going to be in really bad shape.[/quote]
