[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I fail to see how they can forbid children from entering the building. On what authority can they bar my daughter from going back into her elementary school while allowing others? What about families that moved to Alexandria since December?[/quote]

Ever try to get into a VIP area without being on the list? Sorry. You didn’t make the right choice when given the opportunity. [/quote]

Wrong![/quote]

Correct. You made the wrong choice. Now you think you can complain your kid into hybrid. [/quote]

Incorrect. DP. We (I) actually never filled in the form. Overwhelmed with FT job, husband deployed in a combat zone and three kids under 10, it fell to the wayside. Ten minute talk with the principal fixed that and we are now hybrid.

And I'll add this- there's something really gross about you. It seems you're taking delight in children being denied help after they've been at home for a year. Families have really struggled tremendously and you're being glib. You should be ashamed of yourself. I encourage everyone to flag this person's posts.[/quote]

You actually talked to the principal to work it out though. You followed up because you missed the paperwork. These people are saying they’re just going to turn up and demand their kids go in, because they wanted to wait and see when everyone else had to make the decision. A very difficult decision under pressure. I am being glib because so many people on here don’t want to take responsibility for their own choices. You did. My comment is not about you. [/quote]

But the fallacy in your rant is that everyone had to make a decision.  ACPS said the choice was non binding so it was reasonable to believe you did not have to make a choice (we had a paperwork snafu as well.  We tried to fill out the form at 6 pm the last day and the form was taken down at 5 pm).  We are fine with the default virtual choice but others who don’t want to be bound by their purported non binding December choice are completely justified in being outraged and thinking about how to seek a remedy with ACPS.[/quote]
