[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Go mama bear. Your daughter is amazing and an inspiration. I’m sorry the parents of these young kids have not had exposure to her and other really awesome teachers at the school. It’s a real shame for people to have had to miss out on the magic of the full kindergarten experience since those teachers are the best of the best. I’m also sorry that you felt duped somehow which i still just really don’t understand. I’d urge you to think about how signing a contract with someone under uncertain circumstances without intending to stick with it if things didn’t go your way is also duping and immature. I get the financial constraints and I get the disappointment, but if those were factors for your family you should not have signed your name. I too have a young kid and I knew what I was getting into. What I am disappointed in is that you are publicly vilifying teachers and scapegoating other people for an ill advised decision you made. I’m not saying this to be mean, but put the blame gun down for a minute and look in the mirror at your own actions. [/quote]

I am a PP and I have exeperienced the magic of teachers at Burgundy. DiL offered nothing of educational value to my child. I entered into this year's contract knowing things would be dicey and intend to honor it. You can't just excuse poor communication and mismanagement to "what do you expect, we are in a pandemic". What we expect is transparency and knowing why and how current decisions were made. We have heard not a peep of the truth. What I expect is to know what metrics and other criteria will be used to make the October decision, and decisions for the remainder of the school year. What I expect is to feel cared for by the Burgundy community. We expect to know who our child's teacher will be, just 3 weeks from the start of school, so we can start to plan our lives and partner with other families in the same class. These are not big asks. This is not about an ill advised decision that parents made by choosing to stick with Burgundy, as you put it.[/quote]
