Washington County, We Need Your Voice — TODAY The Washington County Board of Education has scheduled a special budget meeting tomorrow at 12:45 PM — right in the middle of the workday — and public comment will NOT be allowed. That means: - Most parents, teachers, and community members cannot attend - The community cannot speak - A major decision about our schools will be made without us at the table This is our children’s future. This is our tax money. This is our community. We deserve transparency. We deserve access. We deserve a voice. ✉️ Here’s how we speak up when they won’t let us in the room: Email the Board TODAY and tell them: - Schedule budget discussions at a time the public can attend - Restore public comment - Stop making decisions about our schools without community input Even a 2–3 sentence email makes a difference. Volume matters. 👀 Watch the livestream tomorrow Even if they won’t let us speak, they should know we’re watching. 📣 Share this post The more people who know, the louder our collective voice becomes. Our kids deserve better. Our teachers deserve better. Our community deserves better. Let’s make sure they hear us — loud and clear.
