The soft form of book burning.
Liberals hate Western Civilization just as much as the Muslims do.
The Chronicles of Narnia
I am sure that “50 Shades of Grey” is just fine, right? I have NOT read that book. Nor would I.
You’re missing out. It’s transcendent. Right up there with Dante and Milton.
Do they place non-married authors next to each other?
No books should ever be banned. Even the ones you don’t like. I have zero problem with some requiring parental approval to check out, but schools should not decide which books are “appropriate” for the library except as what may be on the parental list.
But this same school is undoubtedly under orders to celebrate diversity, and look for books by LGBT writers. Or push books such as Heather Has Two Mommies which push homosexuality.
It is ANTI-theism; religious intolerance sponsored by government
US public educrats have purged God from America’s schools. And we see the results. Christians need to send their children to schools where God is welcome and His blessings are sought by teachers and students in their service to Him and to their society.
A godless education was the foundation of Nazi Germany, the most literate society ever achieved. We know how that turned out.
No need. The Nazi book burners already control the school.
Google "Yuri Besmenov". The KGB "project" to destroy the values- and religious-based American culture has succeeded beyond their wildest dreams.
Does make you wonder, Hemingway, Steinbeck, Clancy for crying out loud.
“The Hiding Place” - an excellent book. Please read it if you haven’t.
Kathleen Hermsmeyer, the superintendent, is no stranger to controversy. She was fired from her last job, as Executive Director for a different charter school, for “misappropriation of money and conflicts of interest”, then she went to this new charter school.
Three back-to-back articles about it:

Other reasons cited for Hermsmeyer’s firing included her alleged decisions to:
- Allow a top administrator to earn $64,500 on loans the school took out without board approval.
- Lease a $43,000 sport utility vehicle, albeit partly for school use, an action the board called needlessly excessive.
- Lease a beachfront condominium in Oceanside for two top administrators to supposedly attract quality employees, an action the board called “tantamount to a gift of public funds.”
- Give a “substantial pay raise” to employees last year without board approval and despite the school’s negative operating balance at the time of $655,000, raises the coastal board contends benefited Hermsmeyer as well as her husband and sister, who were also employees.
- Work as a teacher while also working as executive director, and collecting two salaries, “constituting a self-dealing transaction and a violation of the Political Reform Act.”
I am!
