Watch This: What’s Happening With Our School Boards?!

Oct 12, 2023 | Easy A, School Board Extremism

School boards are being used to dismantle public education. That sounds really sounds wild to say, right? How can the people elected to support public education be the ones who are attacking it? But it really is happening–And not just in a handful of places. It’s happening in school districts all across our country.

That’s why it is so important to learn about our local school boards and how we can support pro-public education school board candidates. Your Easy A action for this week: watch this short clip of school board member Carrie Douglass talking about what’s happening with our school boards.
