Chino Valley Unified School District Discussing Book Banning Tonight

CHINO â€� Fresh off a ,â€� Chino Valley Unified School District (CVUSD) will be discussing a book banning proposal at their board meeting tonight. . CVUSD’s regular meeting starts at 6 PM, and the . 

 CVUSD President Sonja Shaw indicated she was ready for another legal battle with the State of California on the  on 9/30, saying â€�if [Governor Newsome] comes after us for that, let it beâ€� I’ve been working with amazing people. I don’t know if you know Karen England. She is really helping bring light to the porn in the libraries, and alongside her and our school district, we came up to a revision to our current policy that gets rid of explicit material and we’re just going to make it that much more stronger [sic]. We’re going to allow the community to be involved. So when we don’t see something as school board members that was pushed into a library or the classroom, we’re going to allow the community to come and bring that to our attention with a hearing and determine if that book is porn or sexually explicit, and we’ll be able to vote that out.â€� [Starts at 3:28]

Tonight’s meeting was advertised in megachurch pastor Jack Hibbs� Calvary Chapel Chino Hills congregation on Sunday. , individuals, especially those outside of Chino Valley, were encouraged to attend the meeting and speak. Respondents were directed to contact Real Impacts� staff person at a Calvary Chapel Chino Hills email address.

CVUSD uses a system that reduces each speaker’s time based on the number of people wanting to speak. For example, at the 7/20 board meeting where the forced outing policy was passed, the speaking times were reduced from 3 minutes to 1 minute per person. The real impact of Calvary Chapel flooding the room with non-resident speakers is that it effectively silences residents.
