I oppose this bill because it reduces transparency or public accountability and does not meaningfully improve outcomes for New Hampshire residents.

I don’t understand why anyone in the legislature feels that it is necessary to micro-manage our schools in this way. I oppose this bill.

This is an unnecessary bill in a waste of our public school and charter schools time and money. I strongly oppose this bill.

Let all flags in school. This is being used to exclude people and hurts children. Shameful.
