Dear State Superintendent Glenda Ritz: We, citizens of Indiana, demand that you withdraw your lawsuit against the members of the Indiana State Board of Education. We recognize that you were elected by an overwhelming majority last fall to serve Indiana's schools, but this lawsuit against your own board is an example of adult-centered politics that does not belong in education. Hoosier students deserve better. Even at a time when your department is failing to meet critical obligations to Indiana's schools, you obfuscate real problems by making unsupported claims against educators serving on your own board. We echo the request made to you by the State Board members, that you drop your lawsuit, come to the table, and work collaboratively with the board in the best interest of Hoosier students. Sincerely, Citizens of Indiana

Please get to the table and do your job and work through this. Show the children that adults work through disputes and that they come first.

Stop the fighting and do the work we elected you to do. The kids are losing out while you guys play games in court.

PLEASE JUST STOP. Focus on the schools and leave the politics at the door for once. We are all tired of this.

Ridiculous. Waste of tax money and time. Hoosier kids need better leadership than this.

This is exactly why people hate politics. Grow up and work together already.
