As a LAMB parent, my first concern were the families who can't take time off and can't find or afford childcare, but within hours, the parents where in the group chat for our classroom community making sure all the families had childcare. It's called showing up for your community- classroom and beyond.



Sorry did you not realize that the people who were marching, occupying lunch counters, and staging sit-ins left their homes? The teachers are just staying home. How is this helping?


For real? It would be pretty sleazy if LAMB said it is closing so that teachers and staff could attend this protest and then they didnt actually bother to go.

This definitely didn’t happen in my classroom. I am absolutely screwed Monday. I can’t take time off. I’m glad you have a nice community at LAMB. However, your snide tone is really off putting particularly since lamb is known for having a few good teachers and a lot of mediocre ones. Your experience at lamb 100% depends on the type of classroom your kiddo gets. And I guess we got the short straw.

No other schools in DC, including the Spanish bilingual ones, are closing for this. Are they racist?

Pretty sure immigrant parents would rather have their kids in school.

If we don't think our kids should miss school because the teachers want to shake a fist at Trump, then we're racist? Ok, Ms. Intolerant. Also, who has child care lined up this fast? We have no idea what we're going to do.

Have you opened a newspaper? DO YOU NOT SEE WHAT IS HAPPENING TO THE FEDERAL WORKFORCE????

This DUMB PERFORMATIVE STUNT HELPS NO ONE.

But it REALLY hurts immigrant families who are trying to feed their families and stay employed during a time where we are literally being targeted by the same administration. This is a TOTALLY UNNECESSARY and WORTHLESS stunt that only hurts families.

This dumb stunt helps no one.


It shows our neighbors they aren't alone. That we care for them.
But, for those without empathy, you see an empty gesture.


This sounds incredibly self indulgent and you sound sanctimonious as all get out. Immigrants didn't ask for any of this. They need you to do your job and teach their kids.


Love you PP. You should go on Parentsquare. The absolutely absurd comments on there are sickening. Parents are freaking out as they can’t find childcare (not to mention that they’d like their child to be educated) and you have these absolutely revolting comments. I appreciate you.


People who disagree with the school's decisions are afraid to comment on Parentsquare because of how ugly it got during covid. The only ones who comment are the brown nosers.


The person who told everyone to go read Martin Luther King sounded like a complete *sshole.


I’m afraid you are correct!

This is one interesting point -- has anyone noticed a chance in attendance at their school since Trump came into office? Maybe deserves a new thread. I have heard of it (reduced attendance) happening in our neighborhood DCPS, which is 40 percent Latino.

Yeah and they also talk about you if you dare disagree with the school. LAMB, everyone is welcome as long as you agree with us.

MY FAMILY IS LITERALLY MADE UP OF IMMIGRANTS BUT BY ALL MEANS TELL ME HOW WE WILL FEEL





No one is telling you how to feel. The facts are the facts. This isn’t going to help anyone. Lamb could have organized a volunteering opportunity, started fundraising, etc. but instead they chose to give themselves the day off. Trust me the families posting how “happy” they are to support this are secretly texting their friends that this is absolute bullshit.


I know it’s hard to believe that some people think differently than you but there are plenty of parents who actually are glad that the school is supporting its teachers.
