(New Brighton, PA) A group of parents and concerned citizens issued at notice of intent for a law enforcement investigation at the New Brighton School Board meeting Monday night. Jay Deluca presented the 11 page notice along with 75 signatures. The group states that they reached this decision after the board continuously ignored their requests to stop violating the rights of students and parents over the last two years. The stated unconstitutional and illegal actions that were in the letter include a violation of Oath of Office, as well as a violation of Supreme Court of PA ruling. The letter states that as elected public servants, the board had no jurisdiction or authority to create or enforce restrictive, abusive, unlawful mandates in a free America. Additionally, the letter states that due to the PA Supreme Court ruling against Governor Tom Wolf, the state nor the board has the authority to prescribe such requirements. The notifying party says they will submit their request to law enforcement officials if the following items are not changed within 72 hours. These items include the cease of vaccine clinics on school property, the discontinuing of testing asymptomatic students, a removal of the Covid-19 portion of the district website, in addition to a written apology to Anthony Ellis permitting him to once again be able to enter district property. The full list can be found below. Attendees of the meeting also reported that vaccine clinic flyers were placed on at least one persons vehicle during the meeting. New Brighton has recently changed their mask policy to optional.
