[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP. I’m not a daycare owner; I’m simply a parent who received this guidance from the school and wanted to pass it along, because it’s the first I’d heard of this. I expect other schools will do the same because I frankly don’t know of any other way to prioritize families, when you’re in a position where you can’t accommodate everyone.

It absolutely sucks, but I honestly don’t know another way. [/quote]

Did they say this when school closed? That if you paid in full you would get priority when they reopen? If so it makes sense. If not there’s going to be a major situation.[/quote]

DP but how would they have known this then?[/quote]

How would they have known that people who pay in full get priority? What do you mean? It’s a policy they set.[/quote]

I think what PP means is they didn’t know what capacity they would be limited to back in March when they had to close. That’s true. They made a gamble when telling full tuition families they’d have a spot because if, say, they had been forced to operate at 20% capacity, it’s very possible they’d have no spots for full tuition families because they would only be able to accommodate essential personnel families (which they say take up about 20% of their capacity).

You all need to remember that the daycares are dealing with ever-changing, impossible to anticipate policies, just like everyone else. [/quote]
