America’s largest public sector teachers union has filed a lawsuit against a Rhode Island mom after she filed records requests asking, among other things, what her five-year-old daughter would be taught in kindergarten.
The mom, Nicole Solas, is receiving help from the Goldwater Institute as she navigates the legal system and fights back against the National Education Association (NEA), which has a budget of more than $300 million a year.
In April, according to the Goldwater Institute, Solas “emailed the principal of her school in the South Kingstown School District asking for the kindergarten curriculum—and whether it would include teaching children politically charged materials, including those influenced by Critical Race Theory and gender theory, holding them out to be true.”
The school refused to answer, and Solas was allegedly threatened with legal action for asking her questions. The school then sent her a bill for $74,000, claiming that’s how much it cost to fulfill a public records request that the Goldwater Institute filed on Solas’ behalf.
Thank you Nicole for protecting your child and all our children!
This is an absurd mistake and insult to responsible stewardship on the part of the union. The curriculum of every public school is public property, period. There should, by law, be a full, current copy of curricula for every grade and class on the local BOE website and a hard copy in every central county library, as well as one freely accessible to students in every school library.
Yep – The first 2 aren’t killing people fast enough!
This lawsuit is meant to deter parents from challenging the indoctrination by the far left progressive/ socialist/ BLM ideology.
sue her for what
Tell me again…………..what country are we in?
