We the undersigned, respectfully request that the Port Townsend Public School Board and its related entities, respect the legal, moral, ethical and philosophical rights and convictions of parents and legal guardians of our children to govern and administer best practices as we see fit regarding the healthcare of our children.

We furthermore respectfully request that the District 50 school board members refuse to entertain or give entrance to any consideration of enacting mandated Covid - 19 vaccinations as a requirement for on-site attendance within the District 50 learning environment.

We hold steadfastly to the moral conviction that NO ONE should be forced, coerced, marginalized or bullied into decisions regarding their own personal health care or that of others whose guardianship they exercise legal authoriy over.

The public educational institutions of Port Townsend School District 50 are tasked with the fundamental responsibility of cultivating the academic acumen of our children. We, the undersigned, are hopeful that parents will not be put in a position to find alternative education for their children. We remain optimistic that you will say no to mandated COVID-19 vaccinations. Thank you.
