It has been another difficult week for a lot of us.
- We requested meetings with the district to better understand the finances. We have asked for detailed budget proposals for all the alternate scenarios. We have not heard back. Instead, we are left with unstructured, repetitive budget meetings that create more questions than clarity.
- The district has also completed their “listening sessions”. We are dismayed to know the mediator will report back to the district lawyers that hired her, and that the board’s actions (if any) to this feedback are unclear.
- We have also learned that many other members of our community are getting involved. The Gray Panthers are a multi-generational local advocacy group and will take their own course of action in the form of a tax-hold. Ocean Shore School PTO has not been part of this action. This group of seniors have previously been supportive of Bonds and Measures that benefit the students of Pacifica and they must have good reason to take this action.
I ask you to stay vigilant and unwavering in your support as we continue the journey to right this wrong in our school district.
Karen Kee, Co-President
