Event News
OSD Board Meeting
There is only a consent agenda for this event posted at this time. It includes raises for un-represented staff at the district office, while Y-Care cuts to Madison and Boston Harbor Elementary Schools are leaving families with cuts to their care in the 2024-25 school year.
Democracy requires adamant participation, and without that kind of participation democracy will very dramatically shift into a bureaucracy. And so every person that’s here is contributing towards maintaining the democracy that we have here. That also starts in schools. Keeping these elementary schools, keeping good funding.”
Olympia School District Student School Board Representative Eggleston
OSD Summer Board Retreat

The Olympia School Board is holding its Summer Retreat 42.9 miles and 53 minutes away, outside of Thurston County. The discussion will include a “school consolidation conversation debrief.” This is not a meeting that requires detailed note taking by the Board & there will be no livestream or recording option.
Holding this meeting at this distance shows a lack of consideration for the community, and it’s simply weird. For those with the time, energy, and gas money, here are the details.
Date:
August 10, 10am-4pm
