To the Editor:
LaToya Fernandez is the leader our schools and communities need right now. She is hard-working, thoughtful, dedicated, energetic, and honest. As a parent, she will make sure parent voices and concerns are heard. As a former paraprofessional and teacher, she will make sure the needs of school staff are a priority. In a moment when books are being banned and the identities of so many in our community are under attack, we need leaders of integrity like LaToya Fernandez. Vote for LaToya Fernandez on Nov. 7.
Kris Wraight
The ONLY books being banned from grade schools are sexually explicit or pornographic books. These books do not belong in grade school libraries. Why not tell the truth for a change!
Specific examples of explicit books, etc. would make your argument more persuasive. Having actually read Fernandez’ statements, she will get my vote as a brave, articulate candidate who, I believe, will support ALL our students and families.
