STEAMBOAT SPRINGS, Colo. Parents of students in the Hayden School District aired concerns at Monday night’s school board meeting, claiming the number of teacher resignations in recent months is being fueled by a work environment where teachers are afraid to speak out about issues to district leadership.
Parents of students in the Hayden School District aired concerns at Monday night’s school board meeting, claiming that the number of teacher resignations in recent months is being fueled by a work environment where teachers are afraid to speak out about issues to district leadership.
During the virtual meeting, five parents, each part of a parent group called the Parent-School Initiative, criticized the board for what they say is an abnormally high turnover rate among teachers and the board’s lack of oversight on the issue.
“With the alarmingly high rate of district employee turnover, I demand the board look at where it is failing our students and the community,” said parent Ashley Sweetser.
