Visitor urges board to reconsider stance on OSBA Pride Advisory Committee
Summary
During public comment, visitor Scott Laird criticized the board's prior decision not to support making the Oregon School Boards Association Pride Advisory Committee a voting caucus and asked the board to reconsider.
At the start of public comment, visitor Scott Laird addressed the board about a previous vote in which the board did not support a request to make the OSBA Pride Advisory Committee a voting caucus.
Laird told directors he was speaking to the board's last-month decision and urged reconsideration; the minutes do not record a motion to reopen that item. Board member Stacey Pelster acknowledged Laird's remarks and shared her perspective on why the board voted as it did, but no formal action to revisit the prior vote occurred during the Dec. 12 meeting.
The public-comment record in the minutes documents the concern but shows no immediate procedural follow-up or new agenda item added at this meeting.
