The district library now tracks and sends each student's library check-out data to their parents. Some parents, who felt the policy was hastily passed, are questioning the convoluted library policy that also makes checking out certain books harder.
“It just felt like they did all of this quietly without asking anyone and that's when I really found out how much power a school board has,” said Nancy Santiesteban, a former librarian and mother of two children in the Elmbrook School District.
Santiesteban said that she understands why parents would want to be aware of the content that their kids are consuming, but she feels the policy might put LGBTQ+ students who don’t feel comfortable discussing those topics with their parents in a compromising situation. [emphasis added]
Ah, they're homophobes, too!
