Members met in the Mount Si High School Auditorium on Monday, May 15th to review progress made during the 2016-17 school year and discuss legislative inaction in Olympia. By a vote of 51-0, members decided to hold a rally on June 2 to demand fully funded public schools. More information will follow by the end of the week.
From the meeting minutes: Two years ago SVEA and the District joined forces collaboratively to publicly advocate for education funding for our schools. The district approached us about doing something like this again to make our community aware of education funding issues. They suggested that we go off the clock on June 2nd, a TDD, and rally again up on the ridge. Marcella Murphy (MSHS) moved that SVEA members hold a rally on Snoqualmie Ridge during the TDD portion of the school day on June 2. Ann Heideman (MSHS) seconded the motion. Discussion followed. The motion passed 51-0 with 1 abstention. SVEA will work with the district on planning and logistics.
