Brandywine School Board votes to halt new inventory of books
No new books will be coming into the Brandywine Middle and High School library anytime soon. The Brandywine School Board voted to halt all new inventory of books.
The board saying it wants to review the books currently in the library before ordering new ones.
Many members of Brandywine for Educational Freedom voiced their concern.
Parents say they should always be concerned what their kids are exposed but that censorship shouldn't be the answer.
“Get them to really to be exposed to things and learn about things because they might not encounter it in their daily lives, and so that’s why it’s so important that that they learn about these things and have stories to read and I don’t think that it’s the place for politically motivated individuals to tell our parents and our educators with their kids should be reading,” said Jasmine Labine.
Parents are hoping to find another way to get the books in the students hands.
