BOTHELL, Wash Parents from the Northshore School District took to the streets of downtown Bothell Wednesday afternoon to air their frustrations with Superintendent Michelle Reid.
Parents held signs saying Reid Must Lead and Free Our Children during rush hour traffic. It s very frustrating, said one parent. I don t even have a word to describe it, said another. I don t think my child has learned at all during the past month, added Maria Khilyuk, the working mother of a first-grader. I am not a teacher. I am certainly not a first-grade teacher. I cannot provide those services to my child.
