At a school in the Apache Junction Unified School District, several agitators disrupted a secretly requested formal school board caucus meeting to discuss a mutually agreed termination to terminate the superintendent’s employment contract. The irrational emotional danger is growing.
As State Superintendent Tom Horn reported, there is a shift in the “traditional academic model.” However, in my opinion, two school board members, Bobby Bowders and Kami Garcia, violated the confidentiality laws of this executive session.
Borders boasts on LinkedIn that he is an “Arizona Political Advocate” and holds employment records from August 2021 to January 2022 as “Deputy Regional Representative, Pinal County Democratic Party: Elected It serves as a liaison and spokesperson for District 5 among the elected officials, constituencies, and constituencies.” party executive committee.

Bauders and Garcia shared a video at the Public School Board on April 10 to share their thoughts on the confidential discussion. In my opinion, it is against the law to threaten to dismiss the Superintendent and expose AJUSD to litigation.
In my opinion, the real reason they violate confidentiality laws is common sense that they don’t support the “traditional academic model” of education.
This was followed by systematic physical and verbal assaults using students during school hours, physically banging on windows, shouting obscenities, and threatening school board members and attendees. bottom. This raises serious concerns about violating laws regarding student safety and interference with educational institutions. AJUSD Student Code of Conduct. The violent plan was aided and coordinated by calling the news media and attempting to turn the meeting into chaos.
The irrational emotional turmoil continued with an insane argument to recall three school board members to advance a new, traditional academic vision. An additional $170,000 would add to the struggling school district’s budget. This recall is motivated by those who support the concepts of indoctrination, child sexualization, social-emotional learning, critical racial theory, and oppose traditional academic education for children.
You have a choice. I choose “traditional academic education” and peace. The time has come to remove these two school board members through the 2024 election process or demand their resignation for the benefit of AJUSD. let’s teach
