Tahoma School District No. 409 – Board of Directors

Maple Valley, WA 98038
Petition to Reject Tahoma School District Proposed Policy 3203
We the citizens of Tahoma School District No. 409 petition the Board of Directors to REJECT Policy 3203 in its current form. Policy that allows the district to enact discriminatory hiring procedures is not a reflection of our community. Furthermore, such practice directly violates Washington State Initiative 200, potentially opening the school district to costly lawsuits.
We believe that Policy 3203 further enables an “us vs them” mentality at a time when division and polarization is at an all time high. While our stance is that all students within the district should be afforded equal opportunity, regardless of background or belief, we believe that Policy 3203 in its current form will have a negative impact towards the achievement of this goal.
Signed,
