- Description:
- State Senator Jimmy Belvin received a call regarding grievances from matrons at Riverside school in Anadarko. The issue had been ongoing since August and despite attempts to resolve it, the matrons felt they were not being heard. Senator Belvin contacted Mr. Pyle, the school superintendent, but the matrons still felt they were being silenced. They requested a hearing with Mr. D. Otis Beasley from Secretary Udall's office. After contacting Mr. Beasley, it was arranged for him to be represented at the hearing. The matrons expressed concerns about retaliation if they spoke out. The hearing was scheduled for June 30th.
