The topic that divided Polk County school board members Tuesday was one that rarely causes a stir. During a lengthy meeting, board members debated whether Polk County Public Schools should discontinue its normally-perfunctory proclamations, which mark annual occasions like Black History Month, Hispanic Heritage Month, and Disability Awareness Month. Dozens showed up — teachers, students, and community members — to speak for and against the district’s proclamations.
