[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] OH DEAR GOD NO NOT FEEDING POOR FAMILIES!!! My kid's ES was the same way, and I was goddamn proud to be a parent at that school during the pandemic. I used it as an example for my kid of how a community takes care of its members. It was a fantastic lesson for him to learn.[/quote] Ok if they’re also teaching my kid. They’re weren’t. How long are you ok with forgoing an education to be a food pantry?[/quote] As long as there are kids who are hungry.[/quote] There are always needy kids in the world. What a dumb answer. [/quote] No, the question was how long I am OK with feeding students potentially taking some priority and energy away from other educational activities. My answer is that I am always OK with that. If my own DCs need more educating, I can provide that myself. But the schools are better equipped to organize aid to families in need than I am by myself, so my willingness to accept a potential division of the school's energy is a small and limited form of help that I can provide to others who have a tougher day-to-day than I do. My DCs will eventually learn what they need to learn to go to college and do decently well, pandemic or not, hungry classmates or not, imperfections in MCPS or not. Their schools will do what they can, and so will spouse and I.[/quote]
