still it probably should not a concern of yours unless you go to batavia high school or are a parent of someone who does.
thats what bothered me the most.
so many people have spoken words of concern saying that kids should leave the high school or kids should be homeschooled when whats happening at bhs doesnt affect them at all.

The incident in question concerns everyone who is concerned about the death of morality, freedom of association, fascist style homosexual activist tactics, overweening judicial activism, and a bunch of other things.

You think Batavia is on a planet all by itself?

Also, your screen name isn't jiving with your comments. If you think people should be able to say anything, why are you objecting to our comments?

Or is it only people who agree with you who can say anything?

"These students have rights too, don't they?"

You're right! I forgot all about that. DNC doctrine, currently administered by our Federal "courts," demands that students and parents are supposed to be seen and not heard. They are supposed to just sit there and let the Leftist garbage sink in. Thanks for reminding me of that. Good catch!

NY Transsexual Teacher Inappropriate Role Model, Says Knight

By Jim Brown
September 13, 2006

(AgapePress) - A school district in western New York has denied requests from five parents who asked that their children be taken out of high school classes being taught by a transsexual teacher. In doing so, says one pro-family leader, the school is deliberately placing children at risk.  Batavia schools superintendent Richard Stutzman says the reason the written requests were denied is because they did not meet the guidelines set out by the district. Without providing specifics, Stutzman told Associated Press "That's all between the school, the teacher, [and] the parents."

The community has been embroiled in controversy since school officials announced a male teacher at the high school -- who has been diagnosed with a "transsexual disorder," says AP -- is going through a medical transition and is dressing as a woman. Bob Knight with the Culture and Family Institute says the district should be putting the interests of its students first, but "like much of the public educational blob, is [instead] showing utter contempt for the parents."  Knight contends that, by its actions, the district is telling parents it does not care if children become "sexually confused" by the transsexual teacher, or that someone "with a serious gender-identity disorder is being placed as a role model" in front of the students. In addition, he suggests the district is so committed to what he calls the "pansexual revolution" that it is telling parents "you're going to go along with it, and we're not even going to give your kids an out."

Such an attitude, says the pro-family spokesman, is "arrogance at its worst." He also feels the district, which has instructed students to refer to the teacher as "Mrs.," is failing to ensure students have the best possible role model before them.  "I think that the district is well within its authority to tell the teacher ...'If you can't figure out that you're really a man -- you've got the DNA, the genetic sequence for being a man -- you can't be a teacher,'" says Knight. "I think a serious gender identity confusion like this would rule this man out as a good teacher, regardless of his other capabilities."  School officials says the teacher will instruct about 100 students this year. Knight contends that because the district is putting children at risk by allowing the teacher to continue classroom instruction, the parents have grounds for a lawsuit.

"..A school district in western New York has denied requests from five parents.."

The government schools are raising our children. They think they know what's best.

Where is the outrage?

aclj.org helps parents like this for free.

"but when you're telling them that this is wrong and immoral and whatever else, then you're deciding for them."




When an authority figure cites an absolute truth in this context, they are helping to instill character in impressionable teenagers. The teenagers still have to decide to accept or reject absolute truth, just as you have decided. To reject it, it would seem....


Welcome to FR, perhaps.

Diagnosed with a transsexual disorder, the teacher is still going through a medical transition but returned to school dressed as a woman _ and addressed as a female.

I call BS! There's no such thing as a 'transexual disorder', unless it's a made up MENTAL condition! There's certainly nothing physical about it.

MASSIVE DISRUPTION BY PARENTS AND STUDENTS IS THE ONLY ANSWER.

(1) Have your children repeatedly refer to the teacher as "Mister".
(2) Have them ask the teacher "do you have a penis?" and when he replies "yes", have them say "the you are a man. Please act like one".
(3) Parents should go into the school and class and disrupt it until the teacher is dismissed.
(4) Shut the school down by interfering with its operations. Make them tax the local police if neccessary.
(5) Stick together and create a common pool for any neccessary legal expenses.
(6) Bring in Christian legal funds to sue the school repeatedly, forcing them to expend resources and time until the "teacher" is dismissed.
(7) ZERO TOLERANCE. DO NOT PERMIT SCHOOL TO CONTINUE UNTIL THIS FREAK IS DRIVEN FROM CAMPUS.
