Many parents and community members have been deeply upset by recent moves from the Fairbanks School Board to push radical LGBTQ books and curriculum on area children over the past year (click here for details).

The upcoming Oct. 6 election is an opportunity to change the shape of the school board in fundamental way, as three conservative candidates are running for office.

On Sept. 16 a candidate forum will feature candidates looking to bring about positive change in the Fairbanks School District – Jeffrey Rentzel, April Smith and Maggie Matheson.

The forum, which also includes candidates running for the borough assembly, runs 5:30-7:30 p.m. at Summit Church (3340 Badge Road, North Pole). The first hour is set aside for school board candidates. The second hour features borough assembly candidates.
