Ver after some very disturbingistu reports of students being shamed and mistreated, the federal the government says it is pulling funding for the prince georgesh county schoole systems headyst start program. If the program is shutdown itt would leave more than 900 h young kids without much neededdd before and after school care and dozens of teachers out of work. Fox5s Lauren Demarco joins usos with an update. Reporter reports of teacherc humiliating children, using Corporal Punishment and leavingd one child unattended. As you can imagine people are sounding off on the fox5 facebook page. Fa what is wrong with people, children are human another woman saying this is discan gust. Now by cutting off funding the feds have the countys attention, but am are also asking how thats going to help . That is my life my babies here. For many parents it feels like the all important trust has been broken. The Us Department of health and Human Services said the Prince Georges County school boardnt this letter saying its pullingl funding for the head start s program, a six and a half Million Dollars grant. This after several disturbing reports. A three year old boy forced to mop up his own europe after wetting himself while still wearing his wet clothes. Two students forced to holdold heavy boxes over their heads fos long periods of time for being disruptive and a case where a fiveyear old was left unattentive for 75 minutes after visiting the Nurses Office she then walked home alone. The letter states the county wat given time to correct the deficiencies and provide for a save learning environment, butni that didnt one mother whose identity were protecting tells us her son hadd a similar experience. Son had an accident so theyhy didnt give him permission to go to the bathroom. What they did is they leth everybody laughing the at him. Head start is available for lowe income families providing care for three to fiveyear old. The ceo calls the reports unacceptable. There is no room in our School System for individuals who doua not treat our children with compassion, with care, with concern for their complete wellbeing. They will be held accountable to our fullest sten. You have to find a middle ground somewhere. While parents agree the reports are sickening, nearly a thousand families in the county who can afford other care rely on the program. This father doesnt understand why the federal government would drop funding altogether. Im married with four kids. My money is tight. I dont know what to do right now. The School System had 30 daze to decide whether to appeal. Officials say they are still weighing their options but insist the program will beginbei this year as scheduled. We expect all of these 932 i think children to be at schoolco on august 29. Services will continue. The teachers identified in the n reports are still under review,i but the ceo says they will not be in the classrooms when school starts. Prince georges counti executive sha ran baker put out a statement this weekend. He he says that he is angry andd extremely disappointed. Hes assigning staff to work with the School System to get funning restored. Lauren, we heard theear superintendent there say thatdet this is unacceptable, but theut first reports of problems came back in december. Why werent changes made withe i the program after those reports . Reporter he was asked that question today and he didnt give too much of an of answer other than to say it was just the one report where thehee child urinated and had to clean up after himself, that it took sometime for anyone respond too that, saying it took sometimeook for the staff to respond. Instead he went onto say that he spoke with all of the head stard staff today, all members of thef staff and he said that thehat majority of them are very good teachers and that they were just disturbed to hear these reports. The people were actually crying basically saying this was just a few bad apples and not really a systemic problem which is whatht you would believe after hearingi the federal report. Thank you, lauren. Aur were following some breakink news right now in gaithersburg. We are hearing word that a treee fell on an apartment complex. Our Marina Maracco is life onife the scene tonight with the very latest. Marina, anyone hurt in whats the latest . Reporter it appears no one has been hurt, shawn. Theres no fire crews out but they did set up a small firl line here to avoid from people getting closer to the tree. Youll see that its split righp at the bottom, basically at the roots up rooted and then came crashing down here on these six units. Un however, thankfully because its pretty far removed from them th building it appears the majority of the many damage was caused bs the branches although youll see on that top third story the balcony kind of caved in, but, for the most part it doesnt seem to have done major structural damage and it seems that all six of these units that are facing this tree are stillsl occupied and everyone is just fine. No one has been evacuated. They were very lucky that thists was all the damage they had tonight. And we saw several neighborseigh surveying the damage here and so far Montgomery County reportsgoe right now this is probably of the major damage from tonights storm and were here in thee middle of gaithersburg and righe now its a fairly light sprinkle.

It is the worst Natural Disaster in the us since hurricane sandye this is fox5 local news at 10. New tonight, parts of louisiana are underwater. Unde some people planning to visit to the region are having second thoughts now, but theyre having trouble getting refunds from the airlines. So what do you do if you want fly due to a catastrophic events like weather or a terrorist attack . Fox5s teisha lewis is life at Reagan National with the details. Reporter many passengers and travelers are facing that question more and more in recent months in this year. First and foremost we have to say if you have a flight that was canceled then youre more than likely to get your moneyour back. We ran across a post from an American Airlines passenger. Asse she was planning to travel to louisiana this week, but flooding there caused her toer change her plans. So this is how it all played out. Of course these images have been plastered across social mediaeda and also also on television and more rain is even expected there in the forecast. Nearly a dozen people have died. The damage is still being assessed and at least 30,000eas people have been evacuated. Vacu on tuesday president obamant o declared the region a disaster zone. Even so, Facebook User crystal die son says shes unable to geo her money back for a flight sheg booked to the area before the flooding took place. Today on facebook die son posted, American Airlines imim completely confused as to whyo you are not cancel flights to new orleans this week when areas of the surrounding sit advertise aret literally underwater. Nde can someone please help . The debacle comes as no surprise to some frequent flyers who say even travel insurance would notu have helped in this situation. They would have said no ha anyway if they had the travell insurance. There would have been some reason why they couldnt refund them. Theres some reason it makes the insurance useless. Sele if you show them proof of whyf youre missing your or why you o need your money back and youyo process it it takes forever. They want to verify that you, in fact, missed your flight for afr valid reason. Va it has a bunch of reasons listes as to why. It always has stipulations. American airlines did issue a waiver for travelers who booked a ticket to the area, but as we discovered its filled with stipulations and focused on reissuing tickets, not refunding tickets. Its filled with a lot of codes and a lot of mumbo jumbo. I did have a conversation with an American Airlinescan spokesperson who says typically the airline would not issue a refund, but they do go byo special circumstances. So then when i asked what type of special circumstances thehe spokesperson said its really on a casebycase basis. The bottom line is that its probably well worth your timeime and money to book a refundable flight so that youre not inno this situation. Itua so that if something does happed to the area youre visiting you will at least get your pun back. Teisha lewis, fox5 local news. Im assuming probably travela insurance as well. Ranc you know you can do that on independent sites. Nd that might be a good idea. Dea. Its crazy you have to goo through all that. A it is a busy night in the weather department.

We have been watching the or that continue to push to the east but we also want to show you that we have now discovered quite a about it of damage down toward k Street Southeast whereh a roof has been partially blowna off at an apartment complex. You can see Law Enforcement standing around. St we understand theyre doing some evacuations in an abundance ofda caution which is anc great idea. Between 9 20 and 10 00. You can see all the damage in there, too. Th some of the roofing material and siding. Between 9 20 and 10 00 we had that very severe line of storms come through and we did clockid winds gusting over 60 miles an hour, even as high as 64 in the district and 6 in Prince Georges County. Or so enough to do some am da age. Heres where the storms are nows and you can see the bulk of itt all east of d. C. Now in the baye heading over to the earn shore. Ill put this in motion and the storms have been moving rather quickly as they got to 95, 30 miles an hour to the east. So that cut down on the heavy rain they were able to drop, bu, it really upped the anti for the wind damage acknowledge we have all around the region. In terms of the severeere thunderstorm warnings all ofrm w them on the earn shore, but thee lightning continues on the westn side of the bay all the way upy to annapolis. We can still see the thing from our to your cam here. R to the big story is all of the trees that have come down all across Fairfax County and intorx Montgomery County and thats where Marina Maracco is standing by with some damage you found in the gaithersburg area. Ur reporter g thats right, sue. We just saw some fairly strong lightning and thunder here in gaithersburg, right in this very neighborhood where this treehi came down splitting it right ati the bottom up rooting this treeg and you can see here at the firi side condominiums in gaithersburg, thankly not a lot of damage.

Its wednesday. Its time for our segment callee what the facts. Cts. One topic an expert and of course our best attempts toempt answer questions in a way that will showcase our knowledge of just about everything, right inn absolutely. Tonight as we mentioned we mn have a special back to School Edition. Were going to be tacking the anxiety, the cost and much, much more. Here to help us is Howard University law professor radio cohost and most importantly mow i every. Let me ask you about the anxiety level in your house right nowhtn because you still have three little ones at home. Yes, three step sons at homem theyre all in different, elementary, middle and going too high school. You know all about this. A College Student that just left last week. You have everything covered here. Absolutely. Are you ready to get starred. Lets go. Now, for budgeting, should safe an average of 400 for back to School Supplies, true or false. I think thats a little high. High to me in. H im going to say false. You think thats high . Actually parents spend in 2016, 674dollars. 16, just supplies. Just supplies. Ppli supplies and that includes clothes. Okay. I wasnt counting those things in. When we say back to School Supplies we include everythinget like backpack and clothes and computers. Its act i up from 632 in 2015 and this year theres a spending of 75. 8 million on School Supplies. Im in the wrong business. Im going to start sellingart School Supplies. Go ahead. Ahea well go on to the next one. Its better to have one calendar of events for the entire family versus one for each child. I say thats true. E. It works we put everything on one calendar so everybody can seen e it. Thats what we do, too. I shouldnt have explainedve all that. I have no idea, i dont have kids. I only have one child, but we put all of our stuff on thee child. Ill say true. Ill say true. True. It is. One of the worst things isth having no calendar at all or having separate calendars. Another big mistake is usinging your email as your to do list. People jump into their email and see what they have to doo instead of transfer it over. The best thing to do is get one huge calendar for everybody or have an app on your phone likee google calendars. That is one of the best thingst to do. It makes you very organized. I have a calendar just for me. When you have kids youll puu them into that calendar. Retailers offer hugeet discounts in gift cards toai customers that fill out online surveys. This can be a great way to safeo it can also be a great way for them to keep on me. Im going to say yes. Ill say true. It seems like an incentive. It probably is true, but i just dont like it. Ike shawn, you are right. It is false. The Better Business bureautter warned of back to school scams with gift cards and all kinds ever incentives that actually are lure you to a website just to get your personal information. N. Respectable companies will neven do research in that manner. Youre schooling us. G do not do that. Even though it seems like i could get that gift card for everyone, but its never a goodd idea. The best time for kids to do homework is right after school. O im going to say false to that. I feel they need some decompression time after theyte get home. Wed say not right away. Let you have a little snack, ge, yourself together and then the homework. Im going to say true. Im going to say youre allyo right because it does depend what you want to do in your household. Its very mom specific and child specific or dad specific if its the dad that is doing the homework because some moms want their kids to come home and burn off that energy, to play, whatever. Other moms want them to use that energy for the homework. Get it over with. H. I think it also depends on thepd child, too. Chil it totally does. And then there is another subset of moms who want to wait untilit after dinner when the child is relaxed and afterred and use it as Family Learning time. E. Our child is busy washing the dishes and cleaning up afterer dinner. This is the last one. P p your child is anxious or stressed out about going back to school you should sit them downm and reason with them right at that moment. Ent. Id say that is true. Talk to them to reassure them. H. Im going to say false justst because maybe they need a littl bit more time and you have to take it day by day as you leadle into it. So acutely. But thats just a guess. You are right. The non parent is correct. It is never a good thing to attack the childs anxiety righ at that moment. It is better to bring up the topic when they are much more relaxed and they are open to talking about something thatat makes them happy about recess and getting around to the topics when they are expressed out and relaxed. Especially when theyre not getting dressed in the morningoi getting ready to go to school. O. Good stuff. Ood its wonderful to have you here. Thank you so much. Another successful edition of what the facts. Ts well be right back. Flyers making less fuss about flying . Consumer complaints about airlines, nose diving more than 12 percent in the first th half of this year compared tor the same time a year ago. Customers reporting fewer delays with their package.

If theres an upside to these storms tonight, it feels a lott cooler after the storms have gone by. By. But they are still firing up tremendous lightning in the the city. Here is the pattern, west, tot, east movement at about 30 to 40 miles an hour, but just wanted to get in because i wanti you to see that we have lots of warnings as you go over to the earn shore into delaware. So all of this severe weatherre now pretty much on the otherer side of the bay, but we stillill have a little bit of lightning showing up east of 270 down toward rockville and some moderate rain that extends intoe Prince Georges County. Eorg look at all the lightning, too,n from the end of the storm moving across the bay. The lightning strikes in the last 30 minutes over 2,150 lightning strikes. Ligh i know a lot of you are seeing that. And of course the wind damage has been enough to bring down trees all across the region. It wasnt flash flood so much as to the wind damage. Lots of trees down, especially across fairfax as well as Montgomery County and i know i many others. In terms of flash flooding, this is the warning until actually, this one has beenen extended to 116789. 15. Let me give you a new warning, 11 15 for page, shenandoah and warren. The worst of this is just aboutt over. The heat is starting to get softer. Tomorrow only about 90. We will still be humid as we using into the weekend. Well still be near 90. R next week we finally get reel relief as mp the 8 20s. A check of temperatures, 73degrees in the district. Thats a common number all over the place. Quite an improvement from the 95 we hit earlier today. Heres what we have for tomorrow, 90degrees in the district. 91 for quantico. Feeling better, yes, there coule still be a popup storm in the afternoon because this bermuda high will still be pumping upmpn with the heat and humidity. Idit we could still see a few more showers and storms, but i dont think theyll be as widespread as were seeing tonight. Ing by the way, coming up at 11 we have our sixth named Tropical Storm of the season, fee own a. It looks a lot better on the seven day forecast when we had the high 90s and 100s. S. Well dodge a few more thunderstorms as we get into the weekend, but look at monday, tuesday, wednesday, less humid, nice bright days, no thunderstorms expected. A little taste of september coming by next week. Next well get the storms out of herr in the next couple of hours. Urs. Thats a wrap brody whats going on in sports tonight.
