Focus on Academics

To The Editor: An open letter to the LGISD

An open letter to the LGISD school board and Supt. Bill Wagner.

The issue to be resolved is:

What is the objective of a public school system?

As Sarah Kellen stated to the school board, “We send our children to school to learn reading, writing, science, and math.” LGBTQ or any other sexually oriented material should not be made available to a child.

Mr. Wagner, this is not a book banning issue as stated by Jeff Wick in his column.

This is a common sense issue that you have the authority to resolve. Don’t hide behind policy and procedure. Man-up. Take responsibility and do your job.

Jeff, just because someone binds some pages together and puts a cover on the front and back doesn’t create a sacred document that has to be embraced by the general public and protected by the literary police. Please, stop and use some

Please, stop and use some common sense! There really are age appropriate guidelines that most people recognize.

The LGBTQ+ lobby has gained a lot of momentum in the last few years. If we are to believe it’s such a wonderful way to live, why does it need to hide behind rainbows, propaganda and government support to be accepted?

Mr. Wagner, please don’t let the latest ideology get in the way of properly educating the children of La Grange. Focus on academics and let parents decide when and how to tell their children about same sex attraction.
