Good. Student welfare and learning environment comes first. More places should refuse to enforce conservative's ridiculous crusade.
I agree, but I have this sinking feeling that the politicians above them are going to find some way to punish or force Fairfax County into compliance. They'll probably slash education funds or replace the superintendent in retaliation.
And I hope the community disobedience continues in response. If they replace the superintendent, just completely refuse to acknowledge them, shun them from every aspect of life these parents have any control over.
I know it's not simple. But I think it's time people start to make enforcing their nonsense as miserable and resource-intensive as possible.
Look at what Texas did to HISD: took it over claiming "poor outcomes" despite it being one of the best districts in the state. I'm not sure how it works in Virginia but they may try something similar.
