Regarding the Friday article, “Everett School Board quarrel; formal reprimand threatened”:
Everett School Board member Jessica Olson is nothing more than a bully doing what bullies do best — acting out and seeking attention. I was not one of Ms. Olson’s supporters and was very concerned about her being on the board prior to resolving her issues with the district. However, I was willing to be open to the fact that her experiences might prove beneficial to the big picture. It didn’t take long for Ms. Olson to justify my concerns.
Her negative, unproductive behavior and constant pursuit of public attention prevents her from accomplishing those things she promised her supporters, and, more importantly, the children in our educational community.
I and my entire family — grandparents, parents, children — had the privilege of being educated in the Everett School District. I also had the privilege of working in the Everett School District for 30-plus years. Because of this, I know that Ms. Olson’s abysmal behavior, deplorable and detrimental comments and her grandstanding will not deter the dedicated staff of the Everett School District from continuing to do an excellent job of educating the children of our community in a positive, productive and educationally sound manner.
Ms. Olson, you need to stop the ax-grinding and take the opportunity to initiate change for the good of the children in our community that your supporters provided you by electing you to this position!
