One seat contested in Centennial School Board election
Board race pits newcomer Erica Fuller against 29-year incumbent Rod Boettcher
The Centennial School Board has one contested race and three open seats with only one candidate running for each zone in the May 18 election.
The contested race pits newcomer Erica Fuller against Rod Boettcher, who has served on the Centennial board for 29 years.
School board members are volunteers and will serve four year terms, ending June 30, 2025.
The election comes at a time when schools are in the spotlight as never before. The year of remote learning has prompted controversy with some people saying schools should wait to open buildings and many others urging schools to immediately open more fully.

Dr. Seuss is the latest victim of US intolerance. Of all things I could imagine, Dr. Seuss? Beloved part of my childhood, nightly companion as I read my children to sleep. Dr. Seuss. He encouraged my children to try new foods (Green Eggs and Ham) and not to be too prideful (The Big Boast). He entertained them, twisted our tongues and taught us so much.
His audience was children, but not really. Dr. Seuss’ greatest messages were for adults (The Butter Battle Book, Yertle the Turtle, Gertrude McFuzz, and so much more). I’ve tolerated much over the last year of nasty politics and insanity, but somehow this is what broke me. Dr. Seuss? Really? Have you lost your minds?

GREEN EGGS AND HARAM
The ayatollahs of racial wokeness have come for Dr. Seuss, who thirty years after his death has been accused of
infidel-ity because he dared to draw characters who are not white, which makes him a white supremacist. See, if Seuss had drawn only whites, he’d have been pro-diversity. But because he drew diverse characters, he’s anti-diversity.
If that confuses you, that means
you’re a white supremacist, too.
Sieg heil,
Hitler!
Six Dr. Seuss books have been voluntarily withdrawn from publication by the company that oversees the late children’s author’s works. Apparently, a bunch of “college professors” and other unskilled cretins had combed through Seuss’ catalog searching for instances in which the poor bastard had drawn nonwhites.
The whole thing started with a report circulating on conservative media that a Virginia public school district had banned students from reading books by famed children’s author Theodor Seuss Geisel.
