Where was Marysville schools’ support for p0lice last year?

It is so painful to see the Marysville School District plead for public support for the upcoming levy election, when just a few months ago they would not support the police with a simple flag, yet allow other highly political symbols to remain in the classrooms.

It’s time for the people to show the district and left-leaning teachers who our hearts and minds really support. Vote no now!
