Laura Stewart’s and Lynne Harris’ PTA

It is time to dismantle the MCCPTA to school board pipeline!

Corruption

Stolen money and jail time. $30,000 in the treasurer’s pocket.

More corruption

More misuse of funds. Inspector general investigating. Laura’s Free State PTA withholding $5,000 from Shriver elementary.

DEI committee that got rid of SROs

School closures

MCCPTA leadership fought for one of the longest school closures in the world.  Testimonies, car parades, secret Facebook groups, heavily censored Facebook groups, and an extremist health committee.

Immaturity

Shady shenanigans + slapped wrists at election time. Violations of candidate promotion, listservs, PTA meetings, implied endorsements.  MCCPTA leaders and allies brag they’re mean girls complete with trademark and copyright.
