Natrona County School District

The 8-1 vote against an appeal to remove two books on LGBTQ issues from the Kelly Walsh High School library. This comes after a committee tasked with reviewing the books recommended they be kept in the collection in September, prompting the appeal. Some parents and community members have attended school board meetings for about a year demanding the removal of books they often claim are pornographic or sexually explicit. The board also approved stricter requirements for purchasing controversial materials in the future.

Four new members were elected to serve on the board with two incumbents losing their bids for re-election. This comes as school board meetings have seen increased attendance and interest over issues such as pandemic mask rules and books in school libraries that include sex education and LGBTQ themes.
