Two elected parent leaders in New York City were removed from their school council positions on Friday. The decision was made by school officials due to their conduct at parent meetings, which had become increasingly contentious over broader political and cultural issues. One parent, Maud Maron, had led a push to review rules around transgender athletes, while the other had encouraged pro-Palestinian student activism. The chancellor stated that the members were unfit to serve in their roles. The removal of these members reflects the escalating tensions within the NYC school board. Additionally, a recent NYC school board meeting erupted in chaos as authoritarian trans activists protested changes to a controversial sports resolution, with some activists howling and humming to drown out speakers.
