Grand Rapids for Education Justice responds to the Grand Rapids School Board with video

Last week, we reported on the Grand Rapids School Board meeting held on Monday, November 4. 

The group, Grand Rapids for Education Justice (GREJ) had presented a series of issues back in October and wanted a response from the board within a month, which was last Monday’s school board meeting.

Several members of GREJ presented at last week’s school board meeting and you can read those comments at this link. However, the Grand Rapids School Board did not provide a response to the issues that GREJ had raised in October, neither in the agenda or in their comments at the end of the school board meeting. Several school board members did have something to say to the GREJ, even though those comments did not address the concerns raised, as you can see at the end of the taped school board meeting for November 4.

In a formal response to the Grand Rapids School Board’s failure to address the concerns brought by GREJ in October and in response to the comments from some school board members, GREJ provided this video response.
