[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The welcome back letter from the head of school was inappropriately political. Surprised there isn't any blowback from that, unless I missed something.[/quote]

No it's not. So you definitely missed something and misinterpreted it.[/quote]

No I didn't.

[quote]As we begin this school year, we are mindful of the broader context in which we live and teach. We return after a summer shaped by global tensions, economic uncertainty, and urgent environmental concerns. Here in Washington, D.C., these realities feel close—whether through the presence of federal forces and the National Guard in our streets, or as world leaders gather nearby to address global concerns.
 
While these circumstances bring uncertainty and can touch each of us differently, they also underscore the importance of community, empathy, and hope. For many, the instability in our world may bring fear or anxiety, felt even more deeply because of personal identity or lived experience. Within our school community, we are committed to holding one another with compassion, honoring both resilience and vulnerability.[/quote]

I went back and reread prior years' welcome notes, and they were nothing like this. I do, however, remember another politically charged letter right around election day. So inappropriate and does not belong in a letter to parents and students.
