Two dozen people signed up to speak during public comment. Three different speakers began reading excerpts from the graphic books, but they were cut off by district staff — including the superintendent — because the language was inappropriate. The speakers wondered if they can’t read it to the board, why can their kids read it?
Board of Education Trustee Dr. Michael Ryan agrees with the district’s decision to remove the books, ‘Gender Queer," "Flamer," and "Wait What?" "The district immediately looked at them. They picked those books up. They’re in the central office," Ryan said.
