Elitist School Boards have implemented policies and curricula that go against parent values and wishes, like mask mandates and CRT. This has lead to hotly contested meetings because parents are fed up with being ignored. But now parents have a weapon of their own to take back control!
The Government Integrity Project (GIP) has uncovered laws that give parents legal authority to mandate THEIR wishes and decisions are implemented!
No more pleading with school board members about masks… or CRT… or DEI/J… or any other decisions that are being made against your will. Mandate what you want your school board to do via a voter-approved petition – and they have to do it!
This newfound power is not limited to mask policies. Parents can take decision-making control into their own hands for any issue at any time.
Parents have this authority via RSA 197:2 (in single town school districts), and RSA 195:13 (in cooperative school districts), to call for a special meeting (i.e. special election) so voters can vote to override the school board.

Have any school districts been successful in the efforts?
The docs & legal codes above re: Parents overriding the school boards are specific to New Hampshire aren't they? Does anyone know which ones would apply for New York State?
Good luck with getting ahold of the Sec of State in Oregon!! She is right behind the Governor! I will share this with the Representatives & Senate. I have in the past!
The gov here is atrocious .. hoping to unseat her in 2022! Glad to see you are a fellow patriot standing up for our kids!
Can these petitions and calls for a special meeting be used in any state?
