Educators from the Camas and Washougal school districts joined forces last Wednesday during a demonstration at 192nd Avenue and 34th Street during the teacher walkout day. The protest was against the state Legislature for failing to fully fund K-12 education.

In light of ongoing education discussions and recent teacher walk-outs taking place throughout Washington state, Sen. Ann Rivers and Rep. Brandon Vick will host two town halls Saturday, May 23.

The meetings, which will be held in Battle Ground and Camas, will focus on the Legislature’s attempts to ramp up K-12 education funding and the current “rolling” special session.
