Demand that your superintendent return the books to where they belong--on library shelves, where students can access them. Email your school board. Even better--go to your next school board meeting and speak during public comment.

In response the logical thing for a school district to do would be to restore their student's First Amendment rights and return those books removed under the unconstitutional law to library shelves.
