[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did anyone else receive notice that DC OSSE will stop providing grant money to a currently-shuttered-for-COVID, non-DCPS year-round PK3 starting in June?  This is my first year with a child in a subsidized program so I was surprised. [/quote]

No, was this an email they sent to you?  I don't see it on their website.[/quote]

This was in a letter from my child's school.[/quote]

I’m a director of a center in DC that takes subsidy. They’ve not told us in so many words that they’ll stop paying in June. They have said that funding is not as plentiful and that they encourage us to prepare to open in June. It’s a really tough call. I’m hoping the guidance changes because the way it is written now, we will not be able to take all of our children back given current limits on group size. The illness guidelines means children will be sent home left and right. Plus staff over60 years old or with certain medical conditions like diabetes can’t work without a doctor’s permission. Add to that staff with children under 18 who elect to use 12 weeks of Families First Coronavirus Response Act leave-we will be severely understaffed.[/quote]
