FISHERS, Ind. The superintendent of Hamilton Southeastern Schools is taking heat for a letter issuing guidance to teachers on how to teach about the Black Lives Matter movement. I have heard from a number of parents who are concerned that we are advancing the cause of Black Lives Matter, a political movement within the country, wrote Dr. Allen Bourff.
