Austin ISD dismisses Texas lawmaker's probe into books on race, sex
Manage episode 305871633 series 2582831
The Austin school district is defying a request from a Republican state lawmaker for select school districts to investigate and catalog library and classroom books related to race, gender identity or sexuality. On Friday, district spokesman Jason Stanford said in an email that district officials "decided that a response is not necessary, especially since anyone can search our library catalogues on this website." Austin school Superintendent Stephanie S. Elizalde had told the American-Statesman on Wednesday that the district would work to respond to the request, but she did not want to "turn everything upside down" because of the labor-intensive inquiry.
