I think this law seems stupid. Then I picture teachers in MAGA hats "Let's Go Brandon" t shirts and realize there's no way I'd like to see that in my kid's classroom.

Good. School should be about learning and learning only. Fundamental education. There will be plenty of time in later life to have forced immersion into the current political quagmire of society. I'm very much against anyone, either right or left leaning, attempting to impress young minds.
There could be situations where you might legitimately want to use a pronoun. Like a real trans person being misidentified. Plus, it's their email, speaking for themselves.They aren't personal emails.

It is not their email.
Right. I don't see a problem here. Not much different than a placard on a desk.why is preferred pronouns different from including in your signature line the name you prefer to be addressed (nickname, middle name, pronunciation tip, etc.)?
you can quibble over whether it’s a personal or work email I suppose, but if they sent the email, it’s “their” email.
Fake arguments do you no favors. 🙄Where does it stop? Are they allowed to share Hawkeye gear? What about Nike stuff? Religious swag? Or those ribbons they wear during breast cancer Month?
Do they do the pledge of allegiance in that state? I have to roll my eyes every time I remember they still force kids to do that but you mix it with this BS and it’s kind of chilling
You only introduce more politics in school by making it illegal. One thing I don’t like raising my kids in Iowa is the lack of diversity and would fully support getting them exposed to more “politics”
You made your "point" the second time you voted for Trump. Your opinion is pretty much worthless.
Now this is where the Jeff Bridges meme would actually be perfect.

This sentence is so dumb, amazingly dumb on so many levelsThank you these courageous school board members for protecting their kids from having to look at a pride flag while someone is shooting up their school.

Hey look gold mom is being dumb again. Education is about a hell of a lot more than ABC/123.It has nothing to do with the “ABC/123. K-3 has to give a solid foundation for learning the basics.
I see we have an intelligent hillbilly entering the chat.
Apparently you aren’t aware that only 40% of students in the fourth grade were considered “proficient” in basic math. (Nationsreportcard.com) So it would seem that every minute of K-3 should be spent not only on ABC’s but 1-2-3’s as well.Hey look gold mom is being dumb again. Education is about a hell of a lot more than ABC/123.
I would content these rules are built on fake arguments - just like most regulations were seeing from conservatives these days.
You all are threatened by rainbow flags and pronouns. I don’t see how Nike symbols are a reach.
And all these ideas seem to come from the same people that want to arm teachers
Apathy.They should ban all flags worldwide, except for the Iowa flag and unite under the banner of the one true ruling state in the world.

I am a independent and I don't like any political or sexual orientation propaganda in school. Keep MAGA, BLM, LGBTQ, GOP/DNC, etc. shirts, posters, flags et al out of schools. Anything politics or religion is poison to learning.
I still don’t see why or how any positional symbols, stickers, etc. make 2+2 not equal four...isn’t that what is important?

I gave you a "like" but...yeah...it's not an opinion.

Who said they were threatened? Link?
Lol…so is teaching about climate change political?Without pushing politics. Not hard to understand.
My granddaughter is a third grader and I can’t imagine anything in a classroom that’s outside of instruction in language, math, and science. She’s an 8 year old little kid and her parents are both agreeable to their children learning about the world and everything in it. But right now they want her to receive the best foundation for that lifelong education. Their first grader is a rambunctious little guy whose teacher will have her hands full with him and she’ll have no time to spend on anything but the basics anyway.I don’t know man. If there’s not a threat it seems problematic to create rules for it. What other reason would you have? We hear all the time about tech companies infringing freedom of speech so I thought it was a big deal to implement this sort of government control.
And by the way - I don’t think either is a free speech issue and I’m glad to see this was done at a school board level, but if there’s no threat here I don’t know why you would support it

And we're long past being able to differentiate between the concept and the organization.
I can only do this in response 🙄
Dodging the question was expected.Indeed.

It gets tiring chasing after your mobile goalposts. Climate change can be taught without politicizing it. Although I realize it’s impossible for you to not politicize even a bowl of breakfast cereal.
