Marysville teachers vote 'no confidence' in their school board after racist threats against students

MARYSVILLE — Dozens of students, parents and teachers in the Marysville School District spoke out against racism Wednesday in response to the district’s handling of death threats against minority students.

Protesters outside district offices waved hand-painted signs with messages including, “Enough is Enough” and “It’s not a joke.”

About 85% of members of the teachers union who voted expressed “no confidence” in the Board of Directors, Marysville Education Association President Becky Roberts said at a school district meeting later that evening. The vote happened a few weeks earlier, she said.

On Wednesday the school board passed a resolution condemning racism.
