It is unfortunate that not all avenues were exhausted and funds were not available to try to provide the two day option that many of our parents requested for their children earlier this month. I do support Dr. Brabrand, the FCPS Board and the FCPS staff on their tireless work in this unprecedented time. I know his decision comes from working with health providers on what is best for Northern Virginia.
