I think these school boards screaming for the DOJ to take action against parents for criticizing them need to be strongly reminded who they work for.
Aren't school boards mostly made up of elected positions?
Should be an fairly straightforward process. Vote the asshats out of the position and/or recall them all.

Problem is it's Statist Asshat A vs. Statist Asshat B in all the school board elections. I'd love to see some voters vote in "no one" and leave a school board vacant for a year or two. I'm sure the schools could limp along.

The school boards demanding the feds get involved is one thing. The feds actually doing so is another and that's the bigger problem. The fact that Garland might have been a SCJ is just infuriating to me, considering the stuff he's been doing under this administration.
Where is this school bard meeting violence they are talking about? Other than the usual SJW definition of "violence" as anything they don't like, or people yelling at them? If there is in fact a potential physical violence problem, that is a local LE issue, not a fed issue.

State and Fed rules/regs pretty much dictate what schools can and can't do, so yes they could limp along without a school board.
School boards mostly set budget and approve contracts.

And -- theoretically -- establish curriculum. In practice, that usually amounts to rubber stamping whatever the superintendent and "staff" recommend.

Depending upon the state, sometimes that is done at the state level (sometimes feds too)

Not the school board, but the person running the NSBA, who colluded with DOJ on the "domestic terrorist" label, has been tapped to serve on the Federal Education Governing Board. So I guess a promotion.

Well democrats do seem to fail up.

I have a friend on our local school board. Apparently, Ohio School Boards Association is cutting ties with the National School Boards Association. Their letter leaving the group says they want no part in labeling parents as domestic terrorists, and encourage all parents to come to meetings and speak their minds. Local school boards around the state are following suit and terminating their membership.

Horrific. I'm literally shaking.

So far, I believe it's been reported the Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Missouri boards have left the NSBA. Does anyone know of others?
-
Map of states that have "distanced themselves" from the NSBA. States that have cut ties completely are in purple. Will be interesting to see how these states vote in the next few elections, especially since Virginia is only green, and look what kind of red wave they just had.

I’ve been an elected school board member in Illinois since 2001 w a 4 year hiatus but I was on a regional board of school trustees during part of my 4 years off.
I’m in a 2000 student K-12 rural district with none of the bull feces that some urban woke districts push. We just don’t have those issues and my board is pretty well grounded in common sense and Midwest values.

Don’t speak out at a school board meeting or we will send our personal Gestapo force to arrest you.

The solution isn't to legitimize their power by taking the seat.
The solution is to take your children, and their associated tax revenue, to an alternate form of education and fund a better system. Dismantle it.

If the GOP wants red states to stay red, they need to start cleaning up this garbage in their own jurisdictions. And they need to make a lot of noise about it, as well.

Weirdly, a local BLM agitator was arrested at our local school board meeting and wasn’t charged as a terrorist. This woman has been causing all kinds of crap locally including reporting our school as being racist to the DPI ( allegations were investigated and were found not actually real), and trying to organize a BLM March in our town (the ‘raysiss’ city board wouldn’t allow the March without the organizer taking out an insurance policy to cover the March first =D =D ). She finally rage quit recently on social media stating that she was moving out of our systematically racist city (well bye).
She’s a white middle aged woman, who uses her status of being married to an African- American as a reason to declare everyone else a racist. I know her husband, he’s an African immigrant and is a really cool guy who made the mistake of marrying a screeching liberal shrew wife.

I didn't know we had school districts with their own departments. I would expect the state level politicians to get involved in this. However, that needs to be taken to court.

More proof of my belief that 99% of law enforcement officers/agents will happily engage in jack booted thuggery to keep their paycheck.

There are a number of strange entities with their own police departments. School systems, universities, airports, and hospitals, to name a few.
I personally think that entities which need full-time police protection should have to contract through their local police or Sheriff's office. The school (for instance) could fund the hiring, training, and equipping of as many additional officers they need with special assignments and hours to provide service to the school, but the command structure should always pass through a legitimate department.

I doubt it is nearly that high, but it doesn't need to be. 25% would be plenty.

It occurs to me that the lefty outrage over parental involvement in education is a lot like the Indian boarding school program from back about a hundred years ago, or thereabouts.

It also sounds to me like there ought to be some motivated people running for school board to replace the people who are there.

The local university which I went to was three cars and 6-8 officers when I attended a decade and a half ago. Now they are twice as large as the city force is which the university is in and better funded and equipped. Doesn’t sit right with me.

I think Texas A&M was like that in the early 90's, but might have been bigger. They did a lot of parking tickets and speeding tickets on campus. However, there are 20K to 30K more students now so I am sure the department is larger.

And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.

Sounds like the local county attorney is trying to decide how the political winds blow before deciding to press charges. Sounds like a mess of local elected officials that need to be thrown out.
