People explained how Swami was an offensive term to be using in this context and the person basically stopped after that. Guess they were attached to the name.


No. They agreed to use the term “seer” but there were still pages and pages of fighting over the term. This is why we can’t have nice things.


Ugh, totally. Swami was hysterical. And also my favorite thing about DCUM.


I also wonder if the seer started when her kids were little, and dropped off when her kids outgrew the early childhood drama. It’s hard to keep all that in your head when your kids have moved on!


This. It was entertaining because the Seer was so knowledgeable and her snark had the ring of truth. Without that, it wouldn't be good.

This is concerning. Why are you choosing not to return for PreK4?

PK3 In-bound Takoma

1. Breakthrough Montessori
2. Sela PCS
3. Takoma DCPS

May the odds be ever in your favor!




You'll very likely be at Sela, but you're at least guaranteed Takoma.

I miss them. Swami threads were my favorite thing about DCUM.
