[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bottom line- if you have kids at a DC private, please start asking questions about reopen/ hybrid plans.  We’ve all been accepting this “school is working so hard- school is so thoughtful” tripe for too long.  You’re a paying customer. If your kids are struggling with DL, or simply desperately miss there friends and need some human contact instead of 7 hours a day of screens, TELL THEM.  Stop pretending all is so wonderful when we know that it is not. I don’t want this to be a totally lost year.

We, the parents, must start speaking up [/quote]

The holdout board members are posting here. This must be getting somewhere.[/quote]

8:28 again. That's what I think. I am personally encouraging every parent that I know at our Big 3 to start speaking out about this issue. It is insane that we have simply accepted the school's platitudes on this issue for so long.[/quote]

One board member is politically motivated and overly emotional and sympathetic to the teachers posting on here. Call and email them. I know I am.[/quote]

I wish I knew which school you are talking about! If it is our school, I'd call you for coffee today to join forces on how we can get this ball moving.

But in any case, yes, I will add board outreach to my list of contacts. I don't know any of these people personally, but that doesn't matter at this point.

+1. And make sure you leave your name and contact info so they can call you back. [/quote]

He wants to tamper with your kid’s transcript and get your kid kicked out. He wants to run the school.

So our HOS is afraid of this guy? Seriously? Anyone who knows him knows who he is. If you are at a different school, your board has one or two and it’s political. Our kids are political pawns.[/quote]
