The conservative blog, "The Source," is criticizing the Springfield Public Schools for asking local legislative candidates to fill out surveys.
"Why would they send out a legislative survey to all candidates running for re-election?
The fact that they did so is not even the most disturbing part; rather, the content of the survey and the questions that were asked fill that role. There is such an obvious liberal slant to the questions that it paints conservative candidates of any breed into an impossible situation," writes The Source.
The answers of the candidates who returned the surveys to the district were published in this previous blog post.
The post says school administrators will use the surveys to attack conservative candidates in an "off-the-record fashion," because of the content of the questions.
"It’s nothing more than a ridiculous abuse of power, and should be treated as such. The Springfield Public School District’s leadership needs to learn how to get its’ nose out of elections and back in the education of our children," writes The Source.

This is another attempt by the government schools to prmote a nanny state influence on students and their parents. Memo to parents- get your kids out of the government schools while you still can!
I would expect the SPS foundation and the teacher groups to send out surveys.
Not SPS. What was the purpose? To find out where the candidates stand on issues? Then what? Word of mouth or back door politicin'?
Board members acting as a board are supposed to be non-partisan, or so I thought.
Anyhow, if the board president gives $300.00 to a legislative candidate, and he gives it as a private individual, that, in theory, does not reflect an official stance
