At a recent Evergreen Public Schools board meeting, our elected members, with a possible teachers strike going to happen, chose to have dinner instead of listening to parents. I, like many parents, had hoped that they would have been willing to listen to us. I was more than disappointed that the school board chose not to listen.
The school board was elected to represent the interests of the community. By closing the meeting and refusing to hear us, they were not listening or representing us.
