The Detroit school board is interviewing candidates to fill a vacant seat. The district told me to FOIA to review their applications. After filing a FOIA, the district said it would respond by Aug. 11 — well after the board’s vote to select its new member. https://t.co/0ojo9MN1TT

[Hannah Dellinger @hdellingermedia]

The district put the candidate’s required survey responses online yesterday evening, but it still has not released the other materials, which include resumes and letters of intent. The board is selecting the new member on Monday.

King is in the same position as many families in MI and across the country. Parents of students with disabilities and those who experience racial discrimination or sexual violence in schools are uncertain of the fate of their complaints.

Recent work examining the impact of the Trump administration on Michigan parents of students with disabilities in 📸@chalkbeatorg

Sheri King was working with a federal civil rights attorney to get the Detroit school district to pay for tutoring for her son, George Finley Jr. who’s in 7th grade. The regional enforcement office the attorney worked in was shuttered by the Trump administration before there was a resolution, leaving King uncertain of his future education.

Parents of children with disabilities are in limbo, waiting to get crucial services for their children with the help of a federal ed civil rights office that has been gutted. @hdellingermedia shares the stories of several Michigan parents.

“GOP lawmakers want to change an existing federal program that makes subsidized meal programs more efficient and accessible by allowing schools in impoverished communities to qualify to offer free meals to all students…”

Homophobic slurs. Rocks thrown at him. Pushed against a bathroom wall. This has all happened to a Traverse City teen who worries that people have become more emboldened to express anti-LGBTQ+ hate in recent months. Read @hdellingermedia’s powerful piece:
