Another fair and balanced article from Ian focused only on the facts of the story and not spin or bias. The way real American journalism should be.

The superintendent shouldn't be able to unilaterally ban someone from school property, period. The board shouldn't be able to ban someone unless that person has shown themselves to be a danger. And I don't mean by not wearing a mask.

I've recently been alarmed by how much the quality of Lawrence schools has degraded in the last two years due to losing so many teachers. My younger kid is a senior in high school, and they have almost no wiggle room in scheduling. So it's like "I know you'd rather be in French than in theater, but that's what's available". Her schedule for next semester is a disaster IMO. Last semester she got to take Eastern Civilization A SECOND TIME because that was what was available. They ended up having her be a teacher's aid in another class because there was no other place to put her.

The district is circling the drain - quickly.

Unfortunately this kind of suppression was present at school board meetings everywhere. School administrators thought they had the power to make unjustified decisions based on unscientific and manipulated CDC data to push an agenda backed by the union and KASB.

Even our governor was able to get her emergency powers changed with the help of the Finance Council. A move that should have been decided on by the full legislature who acted to change her abuse of power.

I totally support the good Dr. and wish there were more people who would stand up and not be afraid to voice their opposition to the censorship and the lies perpetrated by our government and educators to control our lives. Our children suffered greatly from the unconstitutional mandates of masking, distancing, isolation and the faulty testing that they were subjected to. The loss of academic achievement and social development can never be regained leaving our forever scarred.
