The Nassau County School Board voted to remove the book titled Storm and Fury (Harbinger Book 1) after confirming it appeared on a list compiled by the Florida State Board of Education.
Board Chair opened the action item and Doctor Burns, superintendent, recommended approval, saying the title had not been on the district’s earlier list of state-identified books. After a motion and a second, members voted “Aye” and the removal was approved.
The board noted the removal is consistent with earlier actions taken in response to the state board’s directive on July 10 and August 14. Doctor Burns said the district’s initial search had grouped “Storm and Fury” with other Harbinger titles and that further verification identified the title as one the state listed for removal.
No public testimony on the item was recorded during the meeting. Board members did not attach further conditions or a review timeline to the action during the vote.
The decision to remove the title will be enacted as a district catalog update consistent with previously approved removals. The board did not specify any appeals process or timeline for reassessment during the meeting.
