DCPS remote learning is starting on Monday, and parents and guardians are overwhelmed juggling childcare and jobs. Families desperately need reliable, safe, affordable childcare. Parents and guardians who can afford it are creating pods- small cohorts of children supervised by an adult, who helps facilitate their virtual learning, in adherence of covid-19 health guidelines. Every family deserves this same opportunity.

Send a letter now to Mayor Bowser, Chancellor Ferebee and Deputy Mayor for Education Kihn demanding that they provide DCPS families with childcare options during remote learning, prioritizing our most under-resourced families, with free or subsidized learning hubs.
