As somebody who struggles with mental health issues, the concept of a police officer refusing to try to understand when somebody is going through something is utterly terrifying, especially when taking into account how stigmatized certain disorders are.
Cydneyさんが賛同 Reprimand Sheriff Deputy Mark Heberlig of Houston County GAAs a former educator, with a B.A. in Elementary Education, minor in Child Advocacy, M.A. in Education Policy, and a current Ph.D. student in Education Policy at the University of Pittsburgh, I believed this effort undermines the expertise of teachers and librarians, and ultimately impairs student learning. This policy may not be packaged in a way that would characterizes it as an act of book banning, but that is what it aims to do: take the decision making from the experts and place it into the hands of few to impose their personal and ill-informed opinions on students. The current research continues to show how policies such of negatively impact student learning. As a member of the Wexford community, I am concerned about the implications this policy would have on neighboring schools and communities in the Greater Pittsburgh area. There are FAR GREATER issues that are actually negatively impacting students in the United States that are not books and librarians. Let's put our energy and resources towards addressing those. And a huge thank you from the education research community to the organizers fighting against this policy!
Audreyさんが賛同 Insist Pine Richland’s School Board to Respect Librarians' Expertise in Book SelectionI have many teachers from PR who I will never forget. One of which was my fourth grade teacher. I despised reading until fourth grade when my teacher not only helped me become a better reader but encouraged me to continue reading. To this day I have her to thank for my love of reading. I feel I had a well rounded education at PR but banning books would deter that for future students.
Allyさんが賛同 Insist Pine Richland’s School Board to Respect Librarians' Expertise in Book SelectionHow does a board elected to best serve the children of a country that was founded to protect people’s freedoms decide censorship is the best option for protecting their children? They are outraged that their children can pick up a romance novel with a gay teenager in it but not that their children could’ve been photographed nude by their athletic trainer when one experience is clearly more traumatic than the other. Reality is severe, especially demonstrated by the news inside our district released earlier this week, but we demand not to be raised ignorant.
Kelseyさんが賛同 Insist Pine Richland’s School Board to Respect Librarians' Expertise in Book SelectionAs a Pine-Richland Alum who loves to read, I’m appalled at this news. While a wealthier district, PR was not always the most holistically inclusive environment. Allowing not educators to continue to suppress the stories of some to fit their particular world vision will only continue this path of hatred and exclusion. Many of my peers felt they couldn’t be their authentic selves until after the graduation I’d hope in the 14 years since I’ve graduated that that would change but as parents continue to pressure educators, librarians and the like, they are only encouraging more hatred. Disgusting.
Rachelさんが賛同 Insist Pine Richland’s School Board to Respect Librarians' Expertise in Book SelectionInstead of censoring books, let students read and teach them how to think critically about their reading.
Catherineさんが賛同 Insist Pine Richland’s School Board to Respect Librarians' Expertise in Book SelectionAs a 2020 grad of PR, we definitely had our issues but books were always encouraged and advocated for over any and every other medium. While I've gone on to bigger and better things, it breaks my heart to watch as things exponentially worsen. This board cares about their own political agenda, not the "focus on learning first every student everyday" mission they are supposed to uphold.
Kaydenさんが賛同 Insist Pine Richland’s School Board to Respect Librarians' Expertise in Book SelectionBooks should never be banned because they represent the freedom to learn, think, and explore new ideas. Even controversial or challenging books teach us important lessons and open our minds to perspectives we might not encounter otherwise. Banning books silences voices and limits our ability to grow as individuals and as a society. Instead of hiding ideas, we should encourage open discussions and critical thinking, which are essential for progress and understanding.
Giannaさんが賛同 Insist Pine Richland’s School Board to Respect Librarians' Expertise in Book SelectionI express my strong opposition to banning books from our school district's libraries. I believe that this is a harmful practice that restricts students' access to diverse perspectives and ideas, and ultimately undermines the educational experience we as parents aim to be the best..
Books are a vital part of our education system. They expose us to new ideas, cultures, and experiences, and help us to develop critical thinking skills. When we ban books, we are telling students that certain ideas are too dangerous or controversial to be discussed. This sends a message that we are afraid of open dialogue and debate, and that we are unwilling to engage with ideas that challenge our own beliefs.
Let us instead encourage our students to read widely and think critically about the world around them. Stay out of the way of our educators and librarians who were hired for their expertise, and stay in your lane! Your small mindedness is futile.
