A teacher at a Philadelphia high school has been accused by the Pennsylvania Republican Party chairman of handing out fliers with anti-Trump and anti-Republican messages.
According to NBC-10, the fliers at Central High School in Philly’s Olney section included statements such as “VOTE to stop the Trump regime,” “VOTE because rich right-wingers want you to stay home,” and “VOTE to support Black Lives Matter.”
State GOP chairman Val DiGiorgio is an alumnus of Central and said he was made aware of the literature by a fellow former student.
“Political activity such as this is specifically prohibited by the employee handbook for the School District of Philadelphia, and as such, further investigation into the matter is warranted,” DiGiorgio said in a statement.
“As Chairman of the Republican Party of Pennsylvania, I am also concerned about the liberal indoctrination of students in public schools, which are meant to be an a-political place of learning, not a taxpayer-subsidized propaganda school.”
Philly.com reports district spokesman Lee Whack confirmed the employee handbook notes this sort of politicking is prohibited. He added that there will be an investigation into the matter.[…]
DiGiorgio alleges the material came from the head of the school’s social studies department, Thomas Quinn. Two and half years ago Quinn took issue with a Central HS student’s column critical of college race protests going on at the time.
Last month, Quinn was selected as The Philadelphia Citizen’s “Citizen of the Week” for his voter registration advocacy. “As a politics and U.S. government teacher—for the last 10 years at Central—Quinn is uniquely poised to push the message of voting to his students.”
