Mike Eagan has resigned his position on the school board. This outcome confirms that our community expects a higher standard of moral accountability from its leadership. I appreciate the resolve you maintained throughout this difficult process.

To the community of West Branch Rose City Schools, we are doing this petition to remove Mike Eagan, school board member.  He sat in court supporting Neil Erickson, (former teacher at Rose City) convicted child molester.  On 7/10/13 Mike Eagen, along with many other former Rose City teachers, (they are all now at Surline)  walked past our family with no words for support.  All of the teachers and Mike Eagen walked in with Erickson's family and gave all of their support.  Most of these teachers, along with a few retired ones, wrote letters of recommendation for a lighter sentence for Erickson.  They mailed these to the judge.  Being a school board member, it is a conflict of interest to support a child molester, even if he is a friend, over the support of given to any child and his/her family.  He needs to be removed from the school board!  He publicly supports a child molester!

Unbelievable that he still has a seat on the board. Totally unacceptable behavior for anyone in a position of power.

How can we trust him with our kids? He showed exactly where his loyalty is and it is not with the students.

Mike Eagan made his choice. if he stands by a predator he cant represent our community. time for him to step down.
