To the Community of Cedar Springs:

I, Michelle Bayink, was unable to attend the Cedar Springs Public Schools Board of Education meeting on Monday, October 12, 2015 due to an out-of-state work assignment. I have upcoming work obligations and I will not be able to attend the October 26 and the November 9th meetings.

I am stating that at the October 12, 2015 Cedar Springs Board of Education meeting a statement was read by the board president and was not shared with me prior to the meeting and was not part of the board packet. I had no knowledge of the statement being addressed to the public and I do not support the statement.

Respectfully, 

Michelle Bayink

Board Treasurer
