Her comments were disgusting and she has no place on any School Board.

There should be zero tolerance for this type of offensive language.

How can she not be fired? How can the board stay silent with such racism?

Without a resignation, the perception is that Elgie is only thinking of her own self interests. this is not about her.

In news articles, I've been seeing that Ms. Elgie claims to be having health issues that caused this incident. Even if this is true, this is therefore more reason for her to resign. If she is unable to control her words, she is unable to do this work anymore. It is time for her to take care of herself and resign, and set an example for others.

Nancy Elgie needs to resign. Her comment about a black parent is disgraceful. As a Trustee she is not a role model that the community needs. If Nancy does not resign, she should be fined and fired from her post.

For a trustee to utter this slur is inexcusable and Nancy Elgie must resign or be removed. T

Reprehensible. We need leaders who will LEAD and represent the youths under their guidance with respect, trust and awareness. Plain and simple.
