After frequent legal debate, public outbursts and rescinded motions, the West Bonner County School District has a new superintendent without experience as a teacher or school administrator.
Durst, a former Idaho Freedom Foundation staffer, has drawn criticism from some who believe he is not qualified to take the district’s top position.
Durst has expressed controversial views, including advocating for public schools competing with private schools for taxpayer funding and expressing support for publicly funded religious schools. He’s also warned of teaching critical race theory, a common conservative rallying cry despite how rarely such curriculum is taught.
Durst’s annual salary will be $105,000.
Potato state, potato minds. It’s potatoes all the way down.
It’s really disgusting how conservatives are targeting children and schools. Every accusation is a projection isn’t even conjecture anymore, it’s just fact at this point.
