State and local branches of the National Education Association (NEA) filed a lawsuit this week against a Rhode Island mom who initiated hundreds of public records requests seeking information about whether her daughter’s school curriculum included principles of critical race theory.
The National Education Association Rhode Island (NEARI) and NEA South Kingstown (NEASK) filed an initial complaint Monday against local school officials, as well as parent Nicole Solas and a defendant identified only as John Doe Hartman.
Solas, of Wakefield, told WJAR she submitted more than 200 requests for information after the principal of her child’s elementary school told her they did not refer to students as “boys” and “girls,” preferring to use gender-inclusive pronouns.
That led Solas to initially request a copy of the curriculum. She later broadened her requests to include emails involving the then-school superintendent, teachers and union officials. One of the requests included a question of “what qualifications” a music teacher had “to talk about race and equality with choir students”.
