Parents in Grapevine-Colleyville ISD held a book fair over the weekend. They organized the fair after their school district refused to work with book fair vendor Scholastic any longer.
It has been a handful of graphic images found in libraries across the country that fueled elections to replace board members and ban books, but some districts like Grapevine-Colleyville ISD have gone further banning book fairs and enacting policies on everything from how LGBTQand race are taught to how board members are elected.
"I haven't been plugged into a lot of this stuff and the books were just something that were really important to me," said Carrie Manantob, a GCISD parent who volunteered at the fair after being disappointed with the district's decision.
