If anyone has more information on the incident in the below screenshots, please let us know. We are trying to verify these allegations. Spotsylvania County Schools has a history of covering up child XXX abuse issues. If the allegations are true, we can see the motivation behind the Superintendent and School Board wanting to censor free speech at school board meetings. Sunlight is the best disinfectant on the corruption in Spotsylvania County Schools.

Shamgar Connors frequently speaks at the Spotsylvania County School Board meetings. His speeches are creative in order to attract attention around his message. On May 6, School Board Chair Megan Jackson sent an email attacking free speech rights with no specific standard as to what constitutes “disruptive behavior”. We believe that Jackson is targeting Connors. If Jackson follows through with censoring free speech, we predict that Shamgar Connors will be a millionaire if he files a free speech lawsuit.

Below are three videos by Shamgar Connors. It is not just Shamgar expressing his opinion. Shamgar provides emails, statements and other documentation as evidence to support his statements. We encourage our readers to check out the videos.

Will there be a double standard in light of the Megan Jackson email regarding free speech Roger? Here is what Sheriff Roger Harris said in an NBC4 interview in 2022.

“When the chairman of the school board says to the deputies, ‘I’ve heard enough. You can get ’em out of here,’ the morale of the deputies over the past several months has just decreased rapidly, and when we’re asked to do things that are obviously a violation of the First Amendment … It’s a depressing job to be there and be treated — to see the public treated the way they are by members of the school board, primarily the chairman,” he said.

Spotsylvania County School Board Chair Megan Jackson sent out an email threatening to remove citizens from school board meetings for “disruptive behavior”. We find it interesting that Jackson gets to determine the definition of “disruptive behavior”. We find it interesting that Jackson is weaponizing law enforcement to infringe on the free speech of citizens. Jackson is setting up the school division for more lawsuits funded by the tax paying citizens.

Only a Marxist or Tyrant gets to be the sole arbiter of free speech. What will Marxist Megan Jackson do?

• When Nicole Cole laughs at a public speaker, will Jackson force Nasty Nicole out of the meeting?
• When Superintendent Mitchell makes yet another racist statement, will Jackson have Mitchell removed from the meeting ?
• If Shamgar Connors speaks during public comment, will Jackson prevent him from speaking true statements because Jackson deems the truth as “disruptive behavior” ?

What will the Spotsylvania County Sheriff Department do? Remember when Harris pulled all his deputies from the school division because he did not approve of former Chairman Twigg allegedly infringing on free speech? Will Harris remove all the deputies from school board meetings now or will the double standard continue?

We find it hilarious that Marty Davis, the editor of a local left wing propaganda news outlet, wrote an opinion piece where he comments on the behavior by board members at school board meetings. Where has Davis been hiding for the past 4 years? Why hasn’t Davis commented on the perpetual bad behavior by school board member Nicole Cole, former board member Dawn Shelley, former board member Erin Gramp, and others?

Oh that’s, right. Davis functions as their Minister of Propaganda. Why is this our opinion? Let’s look at some of the evidence from past Spotsy Wire articles. Did Davis say anything, or did he offer excuses for Shelley and Cole’s behavior?

Spotsylvania County School Board member Lisa Phelps met United States Department of Education Secretary Linda McMahon in Washington DC to discuss issues in Spotsylvania County Schools. McMahon is making a big impact in education by body slamming DEI out of education and giving a vertical suplex to the education bureaucrats and unions. McMahon, like Phelps, believes in empowering parents in the education process. Phelps is pictured standing next to McMahon in this attached picture.

At the 4/14 Spotsylvania County School Board meeting, Lee’s Hill District school board member Lisa Phelps speaks about the inaction of the board, the recent tragedies, the child XXX abuse scandal, problems with hiring school staff with questionable records, and meeting Education Secretary Linda McMahon.

Here is the speech by Carla Millsap from the 4/14/2025 Spotsylvania County School Board meeting. She talks about school safety issues, the child XXX abuse issues, and the serious lack of action by the 5 far left members of the school board to address these issues.

Here is the speech by Jennifer Petersen from the 4/14/2025 Spotsylvania County School Board meeting. Ms. Petersen talks about safety in schools.

Here is the speech by Roy Searles from the 4/14/2025 Spotsylvania County School Board meeting. He talks about recent events in the schools and Superintendent Clint Mitchell’s political behavior.

Here is the speech by Shamgar Connors from the 4/14/2025 Spotsylvania County School Board meeting. He talks about the racist behavior by Superintendent Clint Mitchell.

At every school board meeting, there are people including the far left board members that deliberately over praise Superintendent Clint Mitchell. This deliberate overpraising is an attempt to whitewash all the scandals during his administration. From the child XXX abuse scandals to hiring questionable staff with questionable backgrounds and Mitchell’s own racist comments, Mitchell is a disgrace to Spotsylvania County Schools.

We have learned that the Spotsylvania County School Board Chair and HR Director are proposing that Juneteenth be a school holiday. The students are out for summer break so is this recommendation really about the kids?

If the proposal goes thru, the school administrators will have the day off from working for the taxpaying citizens. It does make you wonder about their motivation. It is rather convenient that Nicole Cole is holding an event on Juneteenth that happens to make her more visible for her state delegate campaign and makes it easy for school employees to attend. With the corruption in Spotsy Schools, it won’t surprise us !

Here is another angle from Shamgar’s speech from the 2/10 school board meeting where he addresses the racist leadership of Spotsylvania County Superintendent Clint Mitchell.

The 2/25 Board of Supervisors meeting revealed that Spotsylvania County Schools has growing legal fees. Spotsylvania County Schools is asking for another $300,000 to cover legal fees. Listen to this exchange between Chief Financial Officer Philip Trayer of Spotsylvania County Schools and Livingston District Supervisor Jake Lane. Trayer states “Our legal costs have been exceeding high……..We have some legal issues we have been working thru that are high dollar amount”.

The taxpayer is forced to cover the growing legal fees because of the mismanagement of the school division. Over the past year, there have been a number of lawsuits and scandals such as the Riverbend High School Swim Team scandal, numerous child abuse situations, wrongful terminations of the teachers, the Miguel Valastro Velasquez child XXX abuse, and many others.

Who has been in charge since January 2024? The far-left school board members Lorita Daniels, Carol Medawar, Nicole Cole, Belen Rodas, and Megan Jackson along with far-left Superintendent Clint Mitchell. They do not care about wasting taxpayer money.

Here is the speech by Jennifer Petersen from the 2/10/2025 Spotsylvania County School Board meeting. She talks about the school board not wanting to record public comments. She also talks about losing federal funding because the school division is not complying with Trump’s executive orders.

Petersen states that the federal government provides Spotsylvania County Schools with $31 million dollars. The Spotsylvania County Administrator says that they county can potentially provide schools with $11 million or so dollars. If Spotsylvania County Schools loses federal funding for not complying with Trump’s executive orders, the additional funds from the county will not make a difference.

Inspired by DOGE, the Spotsy Wire sent out emails to the leadership of Spotsylvania County Schools. Below are screenshots of some of those emails. Are these leaders of Spotsylvania County Schools worth their six figure salaries to the taxpayer? We hope they will provide the Spotsy Wire with 5 bullet points of what they accomplished last week. Hopefully the leadership understands that the number of new lawsuits that the taxpayer must fund is not an accomplishment.

The United States Department of Education launched an online form called the “End DEI portal”. This online form allows parents, students, and the local community to report discrimination on race or sex in their school division. Here is the link – https://enddei.ed.gov/

DEI is discrimination based on race. Proponents of DEI always mention the immutable characteristic of race or sex in their arguments which in itself is racist or sexist. When an entire school district commits to DEI, you now have actual proof of structural racism.

Every parent in Spotsylvania County should fill out this online form because the core values of Spotsylvania County Schools are diversity equity and inclusion. It says it right there on page 3 of the strategic plan. Screenshot is below.

Equity is the lie that if we simply redistribute resources based on race or sex, justice will be done. Equity, which is different from equality of opportunity, is the idea that no matter what bad decisions you make, any statistical disparity in say test scores must be the result of discrimination so we must restructure the entire education system so everyone gets the same outcome. Thats the problem with equity. It allows you to blame someone else for your own bad decisions and take no responsibility.

At the February 10 Spotsylvania County School Board meeting, Superintendent Clint Mitchell talked with parents as the meeting occurred. Here is a video clip of one of these interactions. Mitchell appeared upset that a camera was filming him in his capacity as a public official inside a public school during a school board meeting all funded by taxpayer dollars. Mitchell has no problem with Pettway, leader of the local chapter of the racist NAACP organization, standing next to him in the hallway. Yet Mitchell has a problem with a camera.

In this video clip, Mitchell complains about not having a camera in his face. Yet, the video shows that the camera was either behind Mitchell or some distance away from his face. Either way, Mitchell displayed a rude and hostile demeanor including his hand gestures at the end of the video clip. It is clear that the woke Superintendent does not like transparency.
