Meeting attendees applauded Miss Kraton after an announcement that she had been appointed to School District Board 149 last month.
Introduced from the meeting floor, Miss Kraton thanked the trustees and those present and delivered brief remarks on youth advocacy. She said she and colleagues have worked "for over 40 years" on behalf of children and argued that the community must sustain young people now rather than treating them solely as the future: "They're not our future if we don't sustain them today."
The recognition was ceremonial; no formal vote or policy change accompanied the appointment announcement at this meeting. Miss Kraton's appointment to School District Board 149 was presented as an informational item and met with applause from those in attendance.
