Turning Point USA CEO Erika Kirk, the widow of the conservative activist Charlie Kirk, is planning a visit in the Paradise Valley Unified School District next week.
In a letter to parents on Tuesday, Pinnacle High School Principal Jeremy Richards said Kirk would be a guest speaker during a student club meeting on April 24.
He said Kirk would be sharing her personal journey and life experiences with Club America during the lunch period. The gathering is strictly for club members and one invited guest per member, and not open to the general student body.
Richards said the school will have an increased security presence on campus during the meeting.
He added that under the Federal Equal Access Act and a state statute, student groups have the right to invite speakers and engage in activities that align with their interests.
