Many of the speakers received applause from the large audience and some even received standing ovations. There were 13 people signed up to speak in the public forum portion of the meeting. However, some of those 13 were not present to speak when their name was called. Crystal Yamazaki, who introduced her- self as the parent of a daughter who is

After competing in the grueling 1600-meter run in the KIL Championships, her daughter is prohibited from using three runners from different schools (left to right) -- Taylor Cosey of CAK, Callie Tucker of Catholic and Niki Narayani of Webb the girls’ bathroom with her friends. “It -- support each other after the race, as other runners (far right) bend over and try to catch their breath.
