Seattle students returning to in-person learning are greeted by homeless encampments on campus, school officials demand they remainhttps://thepostmillennial.com/seattle-students-returning-to-in-person-learning-are-greeted-by-homeless-encampments-on-campus-school-officials-demand-they-remain/Students who returned to in person learning at Seattle Public Schools on Monday for the first time in over a year found homeless encampments waiting for them on the grounds of two of the district’s campuses. This, only two short years after state officials debated legislation prohibiting homeless encampments from being allowed to be established within 1,000 feet from a school.
Neighbors have even photographed King County needle exchange vans near the properties as well as dead rats in the encampments tied to sticks.
... Neighbors attribute area crime, trash, waste and needles to the encampments. Seattle Public School officials have refused to address the situation adeqauteky according to neighbors and parents. School board members have even demanded that the encampments remain.
City officials and school board members have declined to meet with the group of neighbors, parents and employees who are seeking to address the encampments. In emails sent by neighbors and employees to The Post Millennial, Seattle School Board President Chandra Hampson and Director Zachary DeWolf demanded Mayor Jenny Durkan not allow the encampments to be removed from school grounds.
School board members who demand that the
sacred homeless be allowed to continue to endanger students' health and well-being need to be removed from the school board! Before some student is killed or raped!!!
