The School Board has REFUSED to add it to their Agenda for 2/15/2022
So... I will be regulated to a 3-minute public speech in which I will do my best to represent us... and you... in the public forum. Of course, this is only one-way dialogue and there will not be reciprocation in discourse.
I've posted yesterday some alternatives that you can pursue. We are being left to fight with the politicians which is a pretty cowardly way of handling things when it comes to "educators" who are supposed to be "protecting children"... so I hope you will raise this and many other privacy issues with them... as I will too.

Good afternoon, Ms. Woods,
Monthly board meetings are held for the purpose of the board to conduct LCSC business. Action items include financial approvals, payroll, staff matters, large purchases, etc. Informational items are designed to inform the board of special topics. For example, at tomorrow’s meeting, will hear an update from on graduation requirements and education related legislation currently be considered at the statehouse.
As you know, we also allow the public to provide comment to the board. If follow-up is requested, that occurs outside of our meeting time directly with the community member, typically via email. You shared your concern with us at the January meeting. The board and Dr. Milleman have corresponded with you and provided information to answer your questions.
We have not added this item to tomorrow night’s agenda. This is not an item that pertains to board business as described above. If you have further questions, we would be glad to assist you. If your concern is about the state requirement to include vaccine information with a student’s transcript, that concern would be better directed to your state lawmakers. They are the ones who have authority to change that, not the school board.
Please keep in mind that the vaccination record only lists those vaccines required by the State of Indiana. It does not include additional vaccines such as a Covid vaccine or flu shot.
Again, we take your concern seriously and have responded as such.
Sincerely,
Liz Keith
President, LCSC Board of Trustees
