That's a wrap on tonight's candidate forum. Thanks to the high school students for providing their real-time perspective. We will share the recording of the entire event as soon as it is available. #quakervalley #15143 #schoolboard
Gianni Floro closes the Q&A section by demolishing Bill Jasper one last time on his conspiracy theories and debunked data. Don’t believe the nonsense that Jasper spews.
Bill Jasper talks about the success of his QV graduate kids. He mentions his former connections and lack of current ties to the Quaker Valley students and community.
John English talks about his work protecting Oliver North, former president of the NRA. He also mentioned his work protecting against school shootings in the same sentence. Hypocrisy at its finest.
John English talks about his police background and work guarding Iran-Contra participant Oliver North. He neglects to mention anything about his current connection to QV. Does he have one?
Bud Smith says that schools are being invaded by gender, race, artificial intelligence, teachers unions, and zoom. He admits again that he “doesn’t know if these are still issues”.
John English on state rankings: QV should “do more to help dyslexic kids”. Quaker Valley currently has extra assistance classrooms for kids with dyslexia and other learning disabilities K-12.
Bill Jasper on improving state rankings: education is for “students and parents” and that he “doesn’t know because I’m not on the inside”. Jasper says rankings “don’t mean anything”.
Gianni Floro “ I have witnessed real success of QV students” and “I can name the college or trade school of any one of my athletes”. Gianni Floro is from QV and for QV.
Jessica Webster says that the “simple answer is no, indoctrination is not occurring at QV”. She wants students to call out this misinformation and hateful rhetoric.
Missy Walls endorses the Quaker Valley eduction and says that banning books is ridiculous. She says “we teach students how to think not what to think”.
