Thank you, sir. I wish we could simply be celebrating a beautiful yearbook that was produced by our students, but instead we are giving them a first-person lesson in civics.

In 2018, the yearbook documented the walkout after the Parkland school shooting. Nothing was heard from admin.

For those looking for further details without a paywall
Buckle up, friends. This is going to be a long thread.
Earlier this year, the state of Florida passed the ‘Parental Rights in Education Bill’, aka the ‘Don’t Say “Gay” Bill’. The bill bans classroom instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity for K-3.

Incidentally, the next SCPS School Board meeting is tonight at 5:30pm. 400 E Lake Mary Blvd, ESC Rooms 106, Sanford, FL.

There are times when censorship is a distant drumbeat happening somewhere else. There are times when censorship appears in your own community. But there is never a time when censorship should not be opposed with all our collective might.

Welcome to @JBeanDesign’s world for the last week. Her students are giving us hope for the future though.

Take my words to heart. Take this story to heart. Get political, get active. Vote these people out of office. /fin

There is nobody coming to save your rights. If free speech matters, if social justice matters, if our children’s future matters, we must fight this battle again and again. We must bring out the vote and not allow an arch conservative minority to enforce their bigoted agenda. 19/?

Unfortunately, with @GovRonDeSantis polishing his conservative resume for an inevitable Presidential run, it seems like censorship is the central focus of Florida schooling washingtonpost.com/education… universitybusiness.com/woke-…

The amount of time/effort this has already cost SCPS is astonishing. And the costs are sure to rise as the county must now contend with the fallout of its actions. This is money better spent on education than censorship. 17/?

As a parent, as a husband, and as a human being, I protest the actions being taken by SCPS to cover up their mistakes and to silence the LGBTQ+ community. I am protest the ‘Don’t Say “Gay” Bill’ and other similarly racist, homophobic laws being enacted by the GOP minority. 16/?

But now SCPS is further silencing a community protest regarding a bill that was aimed at silencing that community. And the fact that the censorship is being applied unevenly is even more problematic. 15/?

At this point, the original content is already going viral and all SCPS admin is doing at this point are just drawing attention to the situation. Had the yearbooks simply gone out quietly and without comment, none of this blowback would have happened. 14/?

Furthermore, the books were pre-purchased by parents of Lyman High School students and do not belong to SCPS. There is a lawsuit waiting to happen if SCPS begins defacing other people’s property. 13/?

At this point, @JBeanDesign and her yearbook staff have informed Mr Hunter that they will not be a party to censoring and defacing their yearbooks. The sheer logistics of unboxing and applying multiple stickers to 600 yearbooks seems to have escaped the notice of SCPS admin. 12/?

What is conspicuously different about the Lyman High School coverage is that the Lyman spread shows students waving Pride flags. All the books document the violations of policy that are supposedly getting Lyman censored, but the censorship is only being applied to one book. 11/?

Third, other school yearbooks in the county documented the walk-out and have been told that their coverage is fine and will not be censored. Here is the coverage from Oviedo and Hagerty High Schools. 10/?
