OAKLEY, California All members of a San Francisco Bay Area school board resigned days after they were heard making disparaging comments about parents at a virtual board meeting they didn t realize was being broadcast to the public.
The four members of Oakley Union Elementary School District Board had stepped down by Friday amid growing outrage that began with the board s Wednesday meeting. Before the meeting officially began and unaware the public could see and hear them, they used profanity and made jokes about parents just wanting a babysitter or to smoke pot in their home.
The incident garnered national attention and widespread condemnation.
The Oakley Union Elementary School District announced on Friday that its entire school board has submitted their resignations from their positions after offensive comments were caught on tape.

ROHNERT PARK, Calif. (KGO) The movement by California parents to get their kids back in public schools is gaining momentum in the form of large billboards. Now, some of the parents who helped to fund those signs have gone public.
Among them, Andrea Quartarolo, who created the GoFundMe page for a large billboard that went up in Rohnert Park last weekend. It reads, Missing All Students Last seen 3/13/20, and looks almost like an Amber Alert.
That billboard has generated more than a little divisiveness.
