Conservative CFISD

 I purchased the book Out of Darkness, because I read in the news about a Dallas area school removing it due to sexually explicit material and depictions of abuse. It is a fictional novel based around the real event of the New London School Explosion:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_London_School_explosion I personally feel this book should only be available to adults, and not available in our schools. I did not file a Formal Reconsideration on it, because so far CFISD has told me no to removing 6 titles of books that made the news (more than once) due to sexual explicit material in it. I took pictures of some of the pages in my personal copy of Out of Darkness, please take a look and decide for yourself if you want this book available to your child, and paid for with your tax money.

When I purchased the book Tricks by Ellen Hopkins to review, I also purchased her title Tilt. Tilt is full of underage sex scenes, drug use and profanity. Very similar to Tricks.    Here is a list of what CFISD schools Tilt is available in: I did file a formal reconsideration on Tricks and the school responded. Please read the blog for Tricks:  https://cfisdvolunteer.blogspot.com/2023/04/the-book-tricks-helps-kids-learn-about.html
