Minnesota School Boards Association cuts ties with national group

ST. PETER, Minn. — The Minnesota School Boards Association is among the latest in the U.S. to withdraw membership from a national association that asked for help from federal authorities in handling parent protests and threats at school board meetings and compared the issue to "domestic terrorism."

Minnesota Republicans in November called on the state's school board association to leave the National School Boards Association (NSBA).

"That the national school board organization would be involved in this attack on parents is outrageous," state Sen. Roger Chamberlain, R-Lino Lakes, said in a November statement . "Unless and until there is a complete leadership overhaul at the national level, the Minnesota School Board Association must preserve the integrity of its mission by withdrawing its membership from the NSBA.”
