We know, we know. School District Board President Brandon Hersey encouraged independent documentary filmmaker Evan Briggs to run for this position, and our endorsement of Briggs only goes to show that the SECB is merely an unwitting pawn manipulated by shadowy forces behind closed doors and yada yada yadaโฆbut, honestly, we liked Briggsโs ideas, priorities, and her demonstrated commitment to helping not only her kids but all other kids do well in school.ย
Briggs got some attention back in 2019 when she and another mom atย Thornton Creek Elementaryย called out the districtโs mishandling of civil rights violations. After the school culture became too toxic for Briggs and her family, she transferred her kids to Sand Point Elementary, where Briggs volunteers with the PTA.
