Public Input <br />Public Input will provide an opportunity for any Board Member, administrator, staff <br />member, student or patron to raise issues of interest. The Board will receive such input <br />without comment, except to ask germane questions of those speaking. Comments should be <br />limited to 3 minutes. The Board will take no action relative to any items during the meeting, <br />but may direct the Superintendent to consider such an item at a subsequent meeting. <br /> <br />Bob Marchus, Ammon teacher and BEA president –The frustration level of teachers is high <br />and they are asked to do more. Teachers expect to be treated fairly and compensated. A <br />survey was taken of 550 teachers and only 7% said they did not support the BEA. As they <br />speak I ask that you listen to what they say, it is about respect and fair play not money. <br /> <br />Peggy Christensen, Ucon teacher – Our goal is for the best education for our students. <br />Teachers and staff have not received the same respect as district.

So much has been promised and so little was given. I am asking <br />you to look at the priorities. <br /> <br />Karen Cook, Ucon teacher – Concerned about inaccuracies; the vote and petition was not by <br />BEA. Package was done in a professional way and not swayed by negotiations team. 250 <br />plus members stood outside during mediation. We received no thanks for the effort we put in <br />getting patrons to pass the bond. We want to be in a district we want to be proud of. Hope <br />negations can come to conclusion, a fair and equitable solution. <br /> <br />Caroline Mackey, Ucon teacher and patron –It’s hard for me to say something nice about the <br />district when we feel unappreciated and we feel you need to know the bad times. There were <br />times we almost struck, times we were given their word, times we did not have a MA, and
