https://www.kwch.com/2022/01/11/wichita-boe-president-suspends-meeting-after-new-members-fail-wear-masks/WICHITA, Kan. (KWCH) - The Wichita School Board was scheduled to swear in its newest members Monday night, but that didnt happen.
BOE President Stan Reeser called for everyone to put on their mask as a part of a directive the board passed on August 23, 2021. The directive requires anyone ages 3 and up to wear a mask in district buildings. After a brief pause, new members, Diane Albert, Kathy Bond and Hazel Stabler, sat unmasked and Reeser suspended the meeting without calling it to order due to the non-compliance.
One. Our students and staff have made it clear that they want to be in school to teach and to learn. In order to make this possible, we must follow current health recommendations and follow public health guidelines The board of education face mask requirement gives us the greatest chance to have the safest possible teaching and learning environment, Reeser said.
And two. This is probably the most important. This district cannot vote on directives, policies and protocols that we expect students, staff and visitors to abide by all the while, while exempting BOE members. This is a message we cannot send, he said.
THIS IS A NEW MAGA WAVE OF BOARD MEMBERS-ANTIVAX, BITCH ABOUT THINGS THEY HAVE NO IDEA----BOOKS RACE
I MAY RETIRE EARLIER THAN I WANT

(1,798 posts)1. If this doesn't show the naked death-drive of this culture...
...at least among the MAGA morons, I don't know what does. There is no rational way to deal with these people. They will have to be coerced one way or another: mask and vax mandates, etc. Whatever it takes.

want to have the option to burn books and are demanding history teacher's lesson plans weekly so they can approve.
BULLSHIT-------THAT IS WHEN I LEAVE
