Members of the controversial, woke Loudoun County School Board will face the ax this November after Virginia’s new GOP Gov. Glenn Youngkin ordered them to face the ballot a year earlier than they would have.
At midnight on Tuesday, Youngkin made an amendment to a bill that moved the school board elections up a year, putting them on the ballot this coming November instead of in 2023, WJLA.com reported. That means all nine members will be up for election come the fall.
‘Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, elections for all nine districts of the Loudoun County School Board shall be held on November 5, 2022,’ the amendment to HB 1138 reads.
The board is made up of nine members, including Jeff Morse, chair of the Dulles District, Ian Serotkin, Vice-Chair of Blue Ridge District, at-large member Denise Corbo, Atoosa Reaser of the Algonkian District, Harris Mahedavi, of the Ashburn District, Andrew Hoyler of the Broad Run District, John Beatty of the Catoctin District, and Tom Marshall of the Leesburg District.
The Loudoun School Board has been mired in controversy, including headlines last year for covering up a sexual assault on school grounds for political gain, which led to an additional assault of a young girl – whose father infamously attended a school board meeting and had to be forcibly removed.
Parents also voiced their frustration with the state’s woke school board saying they did not want their children to be taught Critical Race Theory (CRT) – that they’re bad or good depending on their race.
Multiple school board meetings made headlines after parents were filmed clashing with staff over the decision to teach it – and the board’s approval of a $6 million ‘equity-training’ program last April, as well as the September approval of a study into whether it would be appropriate to give reparations to black people.
A sorta-local Republican Governor with a back-bone!
We need one of those!
FIRE the WOKE make shure they go BROKE !!!!
Any teacher that teaches this racist Marxist CRT propaganda needs to be outed and let the public deal with them
Parents RULE you CRT Fool !!!!!!
