Never a dull moment in @PeoriaUnified11. They will do anything to marginalize @ThePeoriaMom, which makes me wonder: Has Mrs. Rooks just touched the tip of the iceberg? Board Prez Tobey canceled a DEI discussion tonight to bring a complaint against Mrs. Rooks (per Prez Tobey). He seems to have one agenda since taking over this governing board and it doesn't appear to be protecting or educating children. Is the union behind this? Do we all see a pattern all over Arizona? When there is one EFFECTIVE school board member, a loud group will make sure that person is neutered so they can't fulfill their responsibilities. Next to be attacked will be @VoteBowles4PUSD because Prez Tobey is trying to shut her up and she's not having it.

These schools often don't follow state statutes. Don't think there are teeth in most of our great laws. School districts know that, so they skate by and hope nobody watches them. Duly elected Board Member Kim Fisher is being marginalized by the other board members. They are voting to keep her and her alone from professional development opportunities (by charging her for the PD and not the others). Folks, no matter how you feel about one board member or another, government/union schools are on fire. A few people within administration and on governing boards are doing a terrible job while they are on their power trips and spending your money. Those who lean right, don't think Trump is fixing schools, he's not because it's not his job, it's yours. Don't blame the current Occupant of the Ninth Floor. Schools were irresponsible with resources and with YOUR children way before a democrat took her oath. Don't think because you have put your kid in a private or charter, or are using ESAs to homeschool, you no longer have a responsibility to watch these districts. You have chosen to protect your children, but for many reasons, others have continued to enroll their children in these institutions. That is their right, and their children WILL have an effect on your children in the future no matter what education your kids have. These schools often don't follow state statutes. Don't think there are teeth in most of our great laws. School districts know that so they skate by and hope nobody watches them. (And pretty much nobody is watching them). Deer Valley is on the west side, supposedly in a conservative area. Start watching what is going on, get to these meetings, watch what they are spending money on, learn our laws. Same with Gilbert Schools, Higley, on and on. Your "conservative" areas have some of the most liberal boards and curriculum.
