I am very concerned about the proposed human rights club scheduled over lunch at Priest River Lamanna High School, apparently without parental or community input. With an outlined focus of “American Indian, Alaska Native ..” in November, “Men & LGBTQA” in December, “Middle Eastern” in January, “Black and African American” in February, Women in March, Asians in April, and “European (Irish, Polish, etc.)” in May, it seems clearly to have a political and social agenda with which the parents in our community may not agree. Yet, I’ve been told, because the “club” advisor has chosen to have the meetings during the day, neither parents, community members, nor even school board trustees are allowed to attend.

The next WBCSD school board meeting is 6 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 21, at the district office by the Priest River Library. I encourage any parents who can, to attend this meeting and let the trustees know your position on this “club.”
