He seems to have been appeased with our response that:
1) shared Cicley Lewis' criteria for read woke books, 2) the book was selected through a student survey that included a variety of books representing various underrepresented social voices and 3) participation in the book club is by choice. Looking forward to seeing what others are experiencing.

Our policy is in review by the BOE and will be voted on during the December meeting. We had a parent raise opposition to LGBTQIA+ books in the library, and specifically mentioned Rick (Alex Gino). There was no formal challenge up until now, and the principal and Superintendent were able to work with her so that her children are excluded from any and all activities, books, lessons, etc on LGBTQ topics. We have also had very supportive parents, asking that we not censor books.
