A decision to ask certain persons to leave last month’s Senior Expo at Suttons Bay School was questioned at this week’s monthly meeting of the Suttons Bay School Board.
The June 18 event brought together hundreds of seniors to connect with the community and business vendors — along with plenty of political debate that led to parties being asked to leave the event.
The decision to have party members exit the building was made based on policy 9700 which states that school facilities or equipment “may not be used as a means of producing or disseminating to the community any material that advertise or promote a political party, political cause, or the candidacy of an individual for public office. Students and employees of the (district) shall not be used to distribute campaign literature on school grounds.”
