WEBSTER, N.Y. (WHEC) Webster parents say they are fed up for several reasons.
Exactly one week ago Thursday, Webster’s Superintendent announced his retirement. A former basketball coach filed a federal lawsuit against the district. Parents also want their kids back in class.
Thursday night things almost got out of hand, police had to be called in to calm everyone down.
These parents continue to seek answers as to why neighboring school districts not only had a reopening plan in place, but many of them have already returned to in-person classes.
News10NBC If you guys don t like it get out, because you want to know why there s enough people here that will take your jobs, and guess what we ll get our kids back, yelled one WCSD parent.
Parents yelled at board members. Police officers were summoned. Some questions were answered.
In what was scheduled as a budget hearing, parents repeatedly yelled their frustrations over the board members and the board ultimately opted to allow time for residents to speak after the public hearing on the district s 2021-22 school budget. My children deserve better, one woman yelled over the crowd gathered at the district office at Spry Middle School in Webster.
Here s what folks at the meeting said they are frustrated about:
When will Webster students return to school?
With secondary students in several other area districts returning to in-person instruction this month, why hasn t the Webster district outlined a plan for all students to return to school for full-time, in-person instruction, asked Webster parent Sarah Dolle.

PITTSFORD, N.Y. (WHEC) Tuesday, the Pittsford Central School District pulled a worksheet the district says was used in one 4th grade class on one day in January.
The district shared a photo of the worksheet. It talks about the slaves trip to America and that they agreed to work for colonialists.
Pittsford Superintendent Michael Pero says a parent alerted his office to this lesson plan Tuesday. The worksheet was in no way an accurate depiction of slavery during Colonial Times and was highly insensitive in tone, Pero said in a statement. We immediately met with the staff members involved in this lesson and have taken steps to remedy the situation.
