Regular folks are deciding to hold Government entities more accountable. It’s because of what the Government, especially School Boards, are doing to us and our children. It could be described as “they’ve taken over our kids – or are trying to!”
So, I agree with Sally (below) that the Dover School District (SAU11) should be transparent and fully comply with this RSA 91:A demand for all documents related to two extra-district organizations that most people, most likely, have never heard of before.
What is the connection? What are they pushing? And how is this connected to kids in the District?
Given that a parent had to put this in, the District may not be all that forthcoming?
