Tonight on The Board Report, we take a hard look at a proposed school district health insurance rate increase that could have cost teachers and district staff hundreds of dollars more out of pocket — and the fallout that followed when the public got involved.
Joining us is Jackie Rosario, elected school board member and candidate for re-election, who took the issue directly to teachers, staff, and the community by asking for public input online — a move that helped stall the proposal and exposed deep divisions inside the board.
We’ll break down:
What the proposed health insurance increase would have meant for teachers and district employees
Why public engagement suddenly became controversial
Who tried to rein in online communication — and why
How transparency, accountability, and political pressure collided behind the scenes
What this issue means moving forward for educators, families, and voters
When the cost of healthcare rises, silence isn’t an option — and neither is closed-door decision-making.
No spin. No talking points. Just real discussion about real consequences for the people who keep our schools running.
