    With the way ousd has mismanaged the budget over the years, the board is either incompetent or criminals or both.

    The way you have mismanaged money, you’re stealing from teachers, office admin, custodians, and students. By depriving students of teachers and aids and tutors, you’re stealing their futures. And by grossly underpaying y our workers and continuously asking us to do more, now we are talking about wage theft. An instructional aid position pays 19 dollars an hour, that’s not a liveable wage and it’s appropriate for the amount of work that job entails.

    Let me be clear, the teachers, the aids, the office clerks, the custodians have all of the skills and hands on experience to run a school. The board isn’t capable of running a school, you’re barely capable of organizing a meeting, like how many last minute meetings are we supposed to show up because you can’t make a fair budget. The incompetence that you’ve shown time and time again is criminal and you are ruining lives.
