Bay District Schools to modify policy following threat of state legal action
Bay District Schools released a statement Tuesday morning regarding its policy on new clubs.
The statement follows an announcement from State Attorney General James Uthmeier last week that the Office of Parental Rights would take legal action against any schools or districts that prevent TPUSA clubs from existing on campus.Bay District Schools is in the process of making modifications to our existing policy regarding the formation of new clubs during the school year. Superintendent McQueen will present recommendations to the School Board at an upcoming meeting.
READ THE FULL STATEMENT BELOW:
Moms for Liberty Bay County respectfully encourages Bay District Schools to permit Turning Point USA clubs, as supported by the Attorney General’s mandate protecting students’ federal and state equal protection rights. With 120,000 nationwide requests, we kindly urge the School Board to approve TPUSA clubs in our district. It’s concerning that restrictions exist without a formal policy prohibiting them. We hope to collaborate with Bay District Schools to establish these clubs and support equitable policy updates.
Turning Point USA is a nonprofit founded by Charlie Kirk that is based on conservative Christian values, with chapters at high schools and colleges across the nation.
