Will S.C. SBA follow Penna.?

Parents: Are you domestic terrorists? Should your local school board fear your comments at public meetings and any Constitutionally-protected peaceful protests?

The Pennsylania School Boards Association (PSBA) has bailed out of the National School Boards Association (NSBA) over the latter's letter about parents becoming domestic terrorists.

Read this article, which explains the PSBA withdrawal.

Should the South Carolina School Boards Association follow Pennsylvania out the door? Absolutely!

How could that happen?

Parents need to persuade their school district to take that stand. Then the local school district needs to direct its representative(s) to the state school boards association to take that stand. If enough parents put fast pressure on their local school districts, that could happen.

I had several sets of remarks ready for last week's Richland 2 school board meeting. As it happened, I couldn't even get through the one set that I had selected.

Send your emails to ALL the Richland 2 school board members (send one group email). Here are the addresses, Just copy and paste. 

Richland 2 school board members (including two who aren't really legal members):

ameliamckie@richland2.org, cherylcautionparker@richland2.org, docholmesschoolboard2@gmail.com, jamesmanning@richland2.org, lashondamcfadden@richland2.org, lindsayagostini@richland2.org, puttingstudentsfirst2012@gmail.com, 

Send a cc: to Scott Price, Executive Director of the SCSBA, at sprice@scsba.org

Ask them to make a formal request to the South Carolina School Boards Association to withdraw from the National School Boards Association. Ask them to request this item be placed on the agenda of the next school board meeting. Ask for a response.
