The Carroll Community School District (CCSD) Board of Education held a public forum to start last night’s (Monday) meeting. Amy Dea addressed the board, saying she is concerned for students, teachers, and community members because of books that contain inappropriate actions are considered ok reading materials.
Dea adds she thinks the school is receiving books from publishers and various organizations that the school did not order. She says she would like to know how the board reviews the books before being placed on the shelves.
Dea listed 11 total questions she had for the board. The board was presented with three books on the shelves at the high school that could be deemed inappropriate. Board President Cindy Johnson says that because this occurred during the meeting’s public forum, the board cannot take action at this time. The next CCSD Board of Education meeting is scheduled for Monday, September 19.
