Westwood NJ, in an effort to reassert the rights of parents , the Westwood Regional School District board has voted to require superintendent approval for classroom discussions of any “controversial issues” not specified in the district curriculum, clamping down on teachers politicizing classrooms but drawing criticism from those who warned that the change will stifle conversations about real-world topics.
At a meeting last week, the board voted 7-2 to adopt a change to its long-standing “controversial issues” policy. Members Jay Garcia and Andrea Peck voted against the revision. Laura Cooper, James Parrino, Stacey Price, Douglas Cusato, Irene Fenarjian, Kristen Pedersen and board President Michael Pontillo voted for it.
