Require the Waldwick BOE to have a virtual option for BOE meetings
Why this petition matters
Make the Board of Education meetings to always include a virtual option so ALL Can Attend and actively participate in meetings.
Given the ongoing surge in COVID-19 cases in our area—severe enough that Waldwick Public Schools will not convene on site again until 2021—we the undersigned residents strongly request that the Board of Education immediately arrange for public Board meetings to be conducted via Zoom or a similar live-meeting platform, as well as continue a virtual option in the future when meetings are held in-person.
The Board’s refusal to entertain this option gives the appearance that the elected Board members wish to inhibit transparency and shows disregard for the health concerns of the Waldwick residents whom the Board was elected to serve.
Failing to do this is a disservice to the parents, children, and workforce of Waldwick Public Schools. Thank you for your consideration.
