Dear Mrs Jihan and School management,



Hope our message finds you well.

Due to the critical health situation that our country is facing after the Covid 19 pandemic uncontrolled widespread, based on WHO recommendations and Drs feedbacks provided in this domain, and due to the winter season ahead of us, we as parents have many concerns regarding our kids entry to school dates, due to the many risks posed on all stakeholders, be it the kids, parents, teachers and management as well as our elders especially those sharing the same living premises with us.

Our kids health and ours as well comes as a priority, besides learning which is a very important aspect. Hence we truly believe that the current Online learning system from now till March is highly recommended and safer across all frontiers especially when having diabetic / high blood pressure / heart problems / low immunity…parents or grandparents living with us.

As parents it is our right and duty to take an efficient role in the decision making process and opt for the best protective scenario and measures for our kids and our families, based on all the facts and threats posted on us in this country (health issues, health institutions deteriorating situation, lack of medication in market, black market rates of medication and all the financial burdens faced with banks and our deposits...)

Our best solution is summarized as:

1. Proceed with online learning and postpone entry dates to school.

2. Implementation of live streaming, as parents and as third pillars in the education process we are offering all our expertise, efforts, knowledge and financial assistance to help the school in this regard and ASAP. We are ready to meet and discuss all options and set a roadmap.

3. All parents are ready and will commit to paying full tuition, since it’s the teachers right and proper compensation for all their efforts exerted and full time online commitment.



United we Stand, divided we Fall.

In Unity lies Strength.

The school management has not yet issued a formal response to our request regarding the transition to online learning. I am currently preparing a formal letter to provide further evidence of the health risks our families face during this season.

The response to this petition has grown significantly over the past few days. This mounting interest confirms that our collective concern regarding the health and safety of our families is shared by many within our school community.

Other than the health issue, our biggest concern is that our kids will learn 2 weeks overall per month (with physical attendance) instead of 4 full weeks (online).
