Related Teacher Placed on Leave for Opposing Transgender School Policy: ‘First Amendment is on Our Side’
by Daniel Payne, July 17th, 2021
The members of a Virginia school board voted unanimously this week to reject transgender student policy guidance from the state’s centralized Department of Education.
The state DOE issued guidance earlier this year directing schools to develop student-treatment policies in line with prevailing transgender orthodoxy, including allowing students to use bathrooms of the opposite sex as well as the general elimination of “gender-based practices.”
The school board of Russell County, located in extreme southwest Virginia, on Friday voted unanimously to reject the department’s guidance, essentially vowing not to implement the policy guidance drafted by the state.
“I was elected by the people of this community, and I intend to stand up to protect every kid and do the will of the people of Russell County — and not that of an overreaching state government,” board member Bob Gibson told local media on the decision.
The school board also voted against teaching critical race theory in county schools.

Stillness in the Storm Editor: Why did we post this?
The news is important to all people because it is where we come to know new things about the world, which leads to the development of more life goals that lead to life wisdom. The news also serves as a social connection tool, as we tend to relate to those who know about and believe the things we do. With the power of an open truth-seeking mind in hand, the individual can grow wise and the collective can prosper.
