Letter: Choose nonschool day to protest

The Columbian
Published: May 6, 2015, 5:00pm

I wonder why teachers do not use May 25 as their protest day across the county? They keep on saying that they don’t want to harm the children and such. Well then, why not protest on Memorial Day and not affect the school calendar, parents, or students at all? Seems rather straightforward to me.

It could not be that something else is going on here, right?
