Daily Caller ^ | 6/19/23 | Reagan Reese

Candidates backed by an organization focused on promoting merit-based admissions notched several victories in New York City’s recent school board elections, according to the New York Post.

Of 147 candidates endorsed by Parent Leaders for Accelerated Curriculum and Education (PLACE NYC), a group focused on improving academic rigor within K-12 schools, 115 won a seat on their local school district board for the 2023-2025 term, according to the New York Post. The endorsed candidates now make up 40% of elected officials on Citywide & Community Education Councils, which is New York City’s version of school boards.

“The results of this election is a clear mandate from New York City Public School parents for expanded accelerated education opportunities and merit-based admissions,” PLACE NYC said in a statement.

Democrats and their mockingbird media pretend that it is only the "racist" conservatives who are against race-based admissions and the left's version of equality (equity). NY is not exactly MAGA country.

I live in an uber left wing part of NY. The CRT candidates got smashed in the school board races last month. Absolutely obliterated.

This is how we take control back from the evildoers of the left. School boards, city councils, county sheriffs, state party committees, state legislatures, and-and-and. Thinking that just voting for President will fix it all is a fool's errand. Think globally, act locally. (who said that? Yeah, throw it back intheir faces.)

(Waits patiently for the schools to completely ignore the edicts of the school boards. “Since the school boards are now full of fascists”.)
