[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another Congressional Family here: We are proud of our Head of School and he would never knowingly offend anyone. I am pretty sure I know who the original poster is and this person has an axe to grind against the school....we get it, you're angry. We'll all look forward to your next post. [/quote]

Yikes. You all sound like a really welcoming school. With parents like these, who needs people with axes to grind. This post, and the one who says lay off because it’s just a fundraiser speak to the culture at the school. Also... quick question: if the fundraiser is for the teachers, I assume the fundraising will go directly to year end bonuses?[/quote]

Sure it is, but do you really think anti-Semite when you see someone in a pharaoh costume?  Does the old King Tut speech trigger you?  It’s not like seeing someone dressed as a Nazi? I remember dressing as Haman one year for the Hebrew school Purim celebration. As usual, DCUM needs to get a grip. The school is doing a fine job on diversity, equity and inclusion. They are welcoming and instructive. If you are not part of the community and you are basing your view on isolated events taken out of context and spun out of all reasonableness posts on DCUM, you are missing out. I’ve not once felt out of place there as a Jewish parent nor have my children as Jew-ish (mixed) students. Why not take a step back and look at yourselves before casting aspersions at others - especially the non-Jews here who are spending entirely too much time and effort telling us how we should be offended. Maybe do something useful to combat the many, many instances of actual antisemitism. [/quote]

I’m a prospective parent who was (as of the beginning of this week) interested in the school. I’m appalled by the school’s non response. I’m appalled by parents on this thread defending stupid actions. [/quote]
