Demands

The Tigard/Tualatin Schools Alliance for Safety and Education would like to make the following demands:

TTSD to establish and enact a clear tiered response policy to physical violence by December 31, 2023.
TTSD to enable and encourage principals to take swift action to safeguard students against physical violence in alignment with new policies.
TTSD to prioritize the safety of all students against the learning needs of a few violent individuals (especially in the case of repeated acts of violence).
Denounce physical violence in our schools in a clear and concise email to all families in the district, and direct them to the new policies as noted above.
An outside audit of all TTSD policies and procedures. Audit to include comparison to the policies and procedures of the West Linn, Lake Oswego, and Sherwood School Districts and analysis of implementation of policies within TTSD.
If these demands are not met with sustainable improvement to the safety of the school environment, we will pursue the following remedies:

Resignation of Superintendent Sue Rieke-Smith.
TTSD School Board will be held responsible for the neglect of our children and teachers & safety.
Transparency in the hiring process for a new Superintendent.
