The election made Southlake one of the first places in the country where candidates running on an anti-critical race theory platform have taken a school board majority.

n Southlake, Texas, where parents have been feuding for more than a year over a school district’s proposal to address racism, candidates supported by a conservative political action committee won majority control of the school board Tuesday, clearing the way for the board to officially kill the polarizing diversity plan.

A special election to replace a board member of the Carroll Independent School District who resigned this summer definitively shifted the balance of power to opponents of the proposed Cultural Competence Action Plan. Voters in the affluent suburb northwest of Dallas delivered a landslide victory Tuesday to Andrew Yeager, who campaigned against the district’s plan for new diversity training programs and changes to the curriculum.

its a start....

in my area, crossing my fingers but a new school board member might have just been elected....the sitting one spent thousands and thousands of dollars including billboards to maintain her seat....

you have to ask "why" and where did she get the money to run that campaign.....

congratulations to all the good, decent people trying to right the ship on our school boards...

win or lose, the notice has been sent....you leftists NEA supported school board members are not going to be automatically voted in like in yrs past....we are watching you.

Misleading headline, but thankfully their word games aren’t working.

Trump showed us it can be done. Now it’s time to do it. Winning while they whine.
