The entire board of a California school district has resigned following a backlash from a video that emerged of them berating the schoolâs parents in a meeting they incorrectly thought was private.
âUh-oh,â board member Kim Beede said upon realising the Wednesday Webex meeting was public, as a phone screen floods with notifications other people are joining.
âWe have the meeting on public right now.â
âNuh-uh,â Oakland Union Elementary School District president Lisa Brizendine responds in disbelief, shortly before the stream cuts out. Kim Beede breaks the news to the rest of the meeting that they aren t alone.
All members of a San Francisco Bay Area school board have resigned days after they were heard making disparaging comments about parents at a virtual board meeting.
