The statement does not address the allegations of Amber Lavigne, which have been reported exclusively and extensively by The Maine Wire.
The board of a Damariscotta school embroiled in controversy over an attempt by staffers to transition the gender of a 13-year-old student without her parents’ permission issued a vague statement on Monday concerning the issue.
“The Board is aware that rumors and allegations have been published and republished on various social media platforms relating to this issue,” the statement from superintendent Lynsey Johnston and board chair Samuel Belknap II states.
“While it is unfortunate that some individuals have sought to use this issue to try and divide our community, as a Board, we are committed not only to following Maine law but also honoring our school’s core values, and focusing on treating each other with dignity and respect,” it states.

The statement does not address the allegations of Amber Lavigne, which have been reported on exclusively by The Maine Wire. The statement also does not dispute any of the facts reported by The Maine Wire.
Lavigne said at a school board meeting on Wednesday that a social worker at the school gave her 13-year-old daughter a breast binder without Lavigne’s knowledge or consent.
That binder was part of a social gender transition the young girl was encouraged to keep secret from her parents by 26-year-old social worker Sam Roy.

According to Great Salt Bay Community School’s publicly available school policies, school staff are prohibited from encouraging student’s to keep secrets.
School officials have declined multiple request for comment from The Maine Wire. They have not said whether Roy will continue in his role as a social worker for the school.
Blame parents for not keeping up with the children’s lives.
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
The progressives are so slimy. They do something immoral or illegal and whine when called on it and tell the people who object and call them out on their wrong doing, to not be so “divisive.”.
A fresh 9 volt battery will make that hardware unbearably hot in just a second or two. I proved it to my niece.
I always told my kids that if some adult says something and tells them not to tell their parents, they are doing something wrong and trying to hide it, so they should let me know immediately.
Unless it were something totally innocuous, like a surprise party for the parent.
But that would be the only exception, maybe.
How about the child abuse by one of your educators, you idiots?
Sooner or later the raw stupidity of one of these leftist crazies is going to get them killed or beaten so badly they’ll wish they were dead. What they are doing is insane.

Country is full of Sickos!
Blah, blah, blah. And this supposedly justifies drugging and sexually butchering a child. Mengele would blush.
So, the board didn’t really say Schiff.
That statement says absolutely nothing…
Aside from a dig at those who disagree with their policy.

You mean like you used your perverse ideas to divide trust and open dialogue between a child and their parent ?
Like that ?
Spit.

Strangers in the Night sung by Frank Sinatra
Strangers in the night
Exchanging glances
Wond’ring in the night
What were the chances
We’d be sharing love
Before the night was through?
Something in your eyes was so inviting
Something in your smile was so exciting
Something in my heart told me
I must have you
Strangers in the night
Two lonely people
We were strangers in the night
Up to the moment
When we said our first hello
Little did we know
Love was just a glance away
A warm embracing dance away
Lock them up.
The guilty ones deserve a trial and then execution.
Are these parents so blind that they don’t notice facial hair on their daughter?
First, get the kid out of that “school”. Second, administer some justice to the “counselor”.
