Late on September 11th the principal of Judith A. Resnik Elementary School sent a letter to the Resnik school community changing the date of the Back-to-School Night. Thank you to everyone who wrote emails and letters, and called the school, the Board of Education, and the members of the County Council. This change could not have happened without our community speaking up loud and clear. Thank you to United Against Antisemitism for all your work, and to the JCRC for their help in supporting the efforts of this Parents' Coalition and of the Montgomery County Jewish Parents Coalition. Here is the letter.

The new date is on Sukkot, another extremely important Jewish holiday. It's also on Shabbat, which everyone knows is an extremely important Jewish holiday on which work is forbidden.
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to believe that the principal didn't do this on purpose.
Agree! It reeks of antisemitism. She is doing it on purpose at this point
