Public School Boards Fail To See Students, Parents and Taxpayers As Customers

Recently, a School Board member in Pennsylvania told parents, "I don't work for you." Really!  At least he was honest.  No doubt, this particular School Board member is a Socialist Fascist (AKA Democrat) who is owned lock, stock and barrel by the teacher's union as is the case all over the country.  Clearly many public School Boards fail to see students, parents and taxpayers as customers.  That is certainly the case in Washoe County in Reno where we live.  For years very few people ever showed up at School Board meetings.  But now in Washoe like in many school districts all over the country, parents and taxpayers are showing up at every school board meeting to protest the Critical Race Theory Marxist, racist, revisionist fake history indoctrination and imposition of the LGBTQIA agenda and left wing ideology they are pushing in our public schools.  

We are not buying what they are selling.  They just don't get it.  This is why the Biden Administration in collusion with the National School Boards Association attempted to designate parents and other concerned citizens as "Domestic Terrorists" for showing up at School Board meetings.  They are attempting to shut us up.  If anything all of this has strengthened our resolve to take back our public schools. 

In Washoe like in other school districts, our School Board President who is a Socialist Fascist (AKA Democrat) regularly attempts to control what parents and other concerned citizens can say during the Public Comments section of School Board meetings.  She has become a little Gestapa Hitler with outrageous behaviors that has resulted in a hostile work environment so much so that two lawsuits have already been filed against her and the district with more on the way to protect free speech.  For some reason, public School Boards seem to think that the First Amendment stops at the School Board meeting door.  

The fact is that no matter how odious the speech as long as violence is not advocated, parents and other concerned citizens have every right to speak their minds and say whatever they want.  School District General Counsels have failed to properly advise School Boards as to the people's Constitutional rights.   As such, they should be fired for failing to do their jobs.  

In Washoe, apparently there is a Enemies List of parents and concerned citizens who oppose the current School Board's actions who coincidentally are never selected to serve on district task forces no matter what their credentials.  This happened recently when their bogus "Social Justice" Task Force was formed to push Critical Race Theory indoctrination.  And now once again with the formation of a new Superintendent Selection Committee.  All these School Boards want are their lackeys serving on these committees.   We certainly have seen this is Washoe.  

Further, rather than choose a top notch national recruitment firm to assist with identifying a new Washoe Superintendent, the Board retained a local one man roadshow, probably somebody's friend given past corruption, who no doubt they can control to represent the teacher union's interests.  Given that the Washoe School Board hired three losers to serve as Superintendents in the recent past and paid out millions of dollars in salary and severance to get rid of them, they need to get this one right and already the process has been compromised by their shenanigans.  

We see corruption and mismanagement of funds in Washoe.  A former School Board member was forced to resign because she had moved out of her district two years before she was outed.  She basically stole about $65,000 in stipends from Washoe taxpayers during this time period.  Of course, her crony pals on the School Board forgave this theft and did not require repayment. This woman should have been prosecuted for grand larceny and nothing was done.  Go figure.  It is just like in the DC Swamp, crooks and liars abound.   

A sleeping giant has been awakened.  Public School Boards better get used to intense scrutiny like never before.  I have concluded that a Socialist Fascist (AKA Democrat) cannot serve on a School Board, or as Superintendent because of their close relationships with teacher unions that do not represent the interests of students, parents, or taxpayers in any way.  Further, teacher unions are pushing CRT indoctrination and the LGBTQIA agenda along with things like BLM, unrestricted abortion, limiting free speech and gun rights and the whole Socialist agenda opposed by half the country.  This is not workable!!

Since Socialist Fascist (AKA Democrat) School Board members and administrators are owned by teacher unions, it is an incredible conflict of interest.  This is the reason we have not been able to get our Washoe School Board to put a plan in place to improve dismal reading and math scores and the district's horrible Great Schools Ratings.  Necessary reforms would be opposed by the teacher's union, which is the reason they don't happen.  What we have in Washoe, like many public school districts is criminal malpractice and malfeasance.  Those in charge just don't care about academic achievement as long as they can continue feeding at the trough.  

Public Schools are broken when half the kids in our country cannot read or do math at grade level.  Until we elect School Board Members and hire School Superintendents that understand that students, parents and taxpayers are customers nothing will change.  We will continue to see poor academic achievement and half the kids in our country, including in Washoe who cannot read or do math at grade level.  It is criminal malpractice and malfeasance.
