Junior Katya Kuykendall speaks in support of theater teacher Sarah Thermond March 17 at the Palo Alto Unified School District board meeting. According to Kuykendall, Thermond has been a valuable source of stability. “Ms. Thermond is a pillar in Paly Theatre and has given our students the confidence to become internationally recognized performers,” Kuykendall said. “The past two years have been the hardest our community has faced, and Ms. Thermond is our safe adult on campus. … She has anchored us at a time when we are navigating grief, uncertainty, and fear. On behalf of Paly Theatre, we urge you not to further the instability by uprooting our director, teacher and biggest supporter.”

The upcoming special Palo Alto Unified School District board meeting will be held at the district office tonight at 7:30 p.m. Board Vice President Rowena Chiu said she is hoping the district will hire a new superintendent who prioritizes listening to diverse points of view. “Without empathy, we can't get to a place where we can understand each other's point of view and see that what disparate groups think is best for the children in the district might look very different in practice," Chiu said.
