Here and elsewhere, angry unmasked parents disrupt meetings

MARYSVILLE — Last week, a group of mostly unmasked protesters disrupted a Marysville School Board meeting, causing directors to adjourn and police to close the building to the public.

Protesters on Aug. 18 shouted obscenities and engaged in threatening behavior toward board members and district staff, in the name of opposition to the state mandate for students and staff to wear masks in schools and for district employees to be vaccinated against COVID-19.

“It was scary, it was very scary,” board President Vanessa Edwards said Thursday.

Going forward, all school board meetings will be held online.

“What we really want to communicate is the meeting felt very unsafe for our district leaders, our board members and for the public that attended,” interim Superintendent Chris Pearson said Wednesday. “That’s the most important thing.”

Mush safer, and any speaker gets out of line they can be muted.
