A working parent group created a pragmatic reopening plan for West Ada School District and presented the plan to members of the board on multiple occasions. A request to present in a public forum at a West Ada School board meeting was denied, at present we still don&#8217;t have a 6-12 re-entry timeline.<\/p>\n<p>Recallwestada.org Chairman Morgan Wigle said &#8216;It&#8217;s time to move forward with a Petition For Recall. As parents, we have exhausted all avenues to work to reopen schools. The board has created an atmosphere of exclusion, non-transparency, and dysfunctional leadership. We have determined by actions of the West Ada School Board that its trustees do not represent the parents, students, staff, and tax payers of the district.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>The Petition for Recall includes resident signatures from each West Ada school district zone. Zone 1 Representative Ed Klopfenstein, Zone 2 Representative Amy Johnson, Zone 3 Representative Steve Smylie, Zone 4 Representative Phillip Neuhoff, and Zone 5 Representative Rene Ozuna were named in the recall petition.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">###<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE October 6, 2020 Linsy Heiner, Recallwestada.org 208.918.4475 Recallwestada@gmail.com BOISE \u2013 Residents within the West Ada School District will file a Petition for Recall against all five members of West Ada School Board on Tuesday, Oct 6th.
