Mrs. Hamilton’s Testimony

Mrs. Hamilton’s testimony to CdA School Board

The Spokesman-Review

On Tuesday, Katie Hamilton, wife of Coeur d'Alene School Board Chairman Tom Hamilton, testified (hear audio above) that her family moved a child from Hayden Meadows to another school, as a result of problems with pro-PYP staff members. Mrs. Hamilton's allegations of possible harassment of a child by school staff members as a result of her husband's position against PYP is unsettling. If true. Maybe the matter should be reviewed by an independent source, to put the matter to rest. School children shouldn't be harassed as a result of a parent's stand on a controversial issue. Nor should the reputation of school staffers be damaged by a baseless accusation. What do you think?
