A history teacher at a Seattle high school allegedly gave a student a failing quiz grade after he answered that only women can get pregnant and only men can have penises.
Fox News Digital received screenshots of the exams taken by two separate parents of students at the school.
Question 7 of the quiz similarly asked students to identify whether the statement "only women can get pregnant" was true or false. The teacher again marked the student's answer incorrect when he said the statement was true.
Several other questions asked students to answer questions like, "When someone uses 'they/them' pronouns, what does that mean about their gender identity?" and "True/false: Transgender people are gay."
Speaking with Jason Rantz, author of "What's Killing America," on KTTH, the student's mother, who asked to remain anonymous, expressed concern that the school is allowing teachers to bring political beliefs into the classroom.
"I keep trying to wrap my head around how it is legal to teach inaccurate information and force students to answer against their beliefs or receive negative scores," the mother said.
She also claimed teachers have called her son "f---d and racist" and a "product of the patriarchy that teaches young boys not to care about anything."
The school outright denied that such name-calling occurred.
A district response to Fox News Digital's inquiry revealed that a "knowledge check quiz" was administered approximately two weeks ago at Chief Sealth International High School in an Ethnic Studies class but stressed that the quiz results did not impact the final class grade of students.
"SPS remains committed to fostering inclusive environments that encourage the exploration of contemporary issues, particularly the examination of power systems such as racism and patriarchy. This dedication extends to providing a space for thoughtful exploration and dialogue on these issues."

That is sick.
The parents need a lawyer
Had enough yet America?
I’m glad this high school is receiving a lot of attention over this classroom event. The name of the high school may not be included in this article, but probably is included in others. Let the country know how brainwashed and ridiculous their teachers are. The name of the course is highly suspect: Ethnic Studies/World History? Those are two very different pursuits, at least on a high school level.
One is factual, the other is esoteric theory, at best.
Heavy duty indoctrination.... evil WOKE monsters....
The biggest problem our future faces will be a product of the educational system over the past generation.
There is the problem. NOTHING in there belongs in a public school. None of it. That is not education; it is indoctrination and brainwashing.
Back in about 1970, there was a movement to replace all pronouns with one pronoun for both genders, subjective and objective, and singular and plural. That pronoun was “co”. I thought it was a ridiculous idea, and it went nowhere. With the current confusing array of pronouns, I’m reconsidering.
It’s been this way for a long time. It’s just out in the open now.
when I was in high school, we had a history quiz and one of the questions was “Why did Fidel Castro make a revolution in Cuba?”
I gave the correct answer: Because he’s a Communist and Communists believe in world revolution.
I got an F.
I bet he failed this one too!
They make it hard to wiggle out by making it ‘true or false’. By today’s usage, woman seems to refer to actual biological women, or men who pretend to be women. No room to indicate that only biological women can become pregnant.
But again, according the the current stupid-speak, he could have said ‘false’ and been correct...
I went through something similar in high school. They gave a course in the dangers of drug use, and then a quiz based on the content. By the way the questions were worded, you had no choice but to answer them as the lecture had indicated - whether you agreed with it or not.
It’s plain brainwashing.
School should be embarrassed and sued for malpractice, bias, bigotry, and pure idiocy.
Had enough when I watched Waco burn from my barracks in Japan...
I’m not just ready. I’m already ready already...
But, no, kids are not being groomed in schools.
Schools teaching CRAP , they make it up as they go along
The name of the Chief Sealth International High School
Pull him out, home school
That pronoun was “co”.There's a perfectly good pronoun to use for anyone confused about he/she: "it."
