The Editor,

Re. “Daycare scramble as SD43 gives out notices” (The Tri-City News, April 21).

I am a parent who is being affected by School District 43’s daycare eviction notice. With less than three months until eviction, my husband and I are left scrambling to find daycare spots for our two children. It is proving to be extremely difficult and almost impossible, with waiting lists until past 2018.

We, as parents, understand the need for smaller class sizes and applaud this achievement for better education. I only wish the district could have started a dialogue with the daycare communities much earlier, when it had initial plans to reclaim classrooms.
