Quote:Arizona’s attorney general filed a lawsuit against a Scottsdale-area school board whose former board president had access to a dossier that tracked information on outspoken parents, according to a press release.

Attorney General Mark Brnovich’s lawsuit claims that the Scottsdale Unified School District (SUSD), specifically former board president Jann-Michael Greenburg, violated the district’s Open Meeting Law by knowingly cutting off community feedback, according to a press release. The litigation seeks to have Greenburg removed from the board and impose civil penalties on the entire school board.

“SUSD manipulated public input and silenced the voices of parents in order to advance its own agenda,” Brnovich said. “This type of bad school behavior demands expulsion.”

The board violated Open Meeting Laws by “knowingly structuring an agenda and meeting so as to prohibit public comment about a proposed mask mandate and other subjects within the jurisdiction of the SUSD Governing Board, knowingly applying unauthorized content-based restrictions on public comment made during a board meeting, and knowingly cutting off or otherwise interrupting speakers during a call to the public,” the press release alleged.

Quote:Greenburg drew the ire of parents and the Attorney General’s office after the Daily Caller uncovered that Greenburg had editing access to a Google Drive that included personal pictures and information on a slew of outspoken parents. The dossier, allegedly created by Greenburg’s father, included parents’ social security numbers, a divorce proceeding, and financial records.

Folders housed within the dossier are labeled “SUSD Wackos,” “Press Conference Psychos” and “Anti Mask Lunatics.”
