An Alberta parents’ group is calling on two of the province’s biggest school boards to hold byelections to replace trustees who have stepped down, saying they don’t feel they are being heard.
“They need to be providing that representation for parents, for taxpayers to make sure that we have someone that can be accountable to us.”
“She was penalized and we were never told why. She’s still not allowed to say why and they’re not going to have a byelection and be answerable in anyway for that decision. It really makes a lot of parents sit back and go, ‘Who is really running our school board after all?'” Park said. “It raises serious questions about democratic transparency and accountability. You can’t hold someone accountable if you don’t have information and now because the trustee has resigned, there’s a question of democratic representation.”Williams said democracy isn’t cheap and that the board should be able to provide some explanation without disclosing personal information.“Failure to respond just leads to tons of speculation and loss of confidence and trust.
