Special board meeting to discuss policy for sexually explicit books

The Cameron , MO board of education has called a special board of education meeting for the evening of August 29, 2023 at 7 PM in the Goodrich boardroom. You can view the agenda for that meeting on the district website. The building is located at 423 N Chestnut in Cameron, MO.

There will be a public participation period during this meeting. Members of the public will be granted 3 minutes to address the board. This will occur after the board discussion on Policy consideration.

There are 5 items on the agenda under Policy Considerations. They are:

• Suspending/Rescinding Board Policy KL Public Concerns and Complaints
• Suspending/Rescinding Board Policy KLB – Public Questions, Comments or Concerns regarding district instructional/ media libraries
• Suspending/Rescinding/Amending Board Policy KLB-AP1
• Utilizing Internal Review Policy IIAC-R1
• Parent restriction of library materials authorization process/form

I have serious concerns about the parent restriction of library materials form the district is using. I discussed it recently in one of our YouTube videos.
