California Junior High Principal Apologizes For Not Warning Parents About Pro-Homosexual Program
CNS News ^ | Thursday, December 03, 2009 | Penny Starr

Posted on 12/03/2009 12:25:32 PM PST by Sopater

The principal and a teacher at Goleta Valley Junior High School in Santa Barbara County, California are apologizing to parents for not following school district policy relating to a pro-homosexual workshop given to 8th grade students in a leadership class at the school.

The controversial workshop was presented by “Just Communities Central Coast” in three, 45-minute sessions over three days. It included handouts defining homosexual terminology, including queer and transgender, and listed “heterosexism” as “oppression that ‘pushes down’ people who are LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bi-sexual, transgender and questioning) and ‘pushes up’ people who are straight.”

The handout defines sexual orientation this way: “Refers to who we feel romantically and sexually attracted to and who we fall in love with.”

One page featuring cartoon-like figures and entitled “Gender & Sexuality Definitions: A Visual Map,” depicts a person's body with the heart area labeled as “sexual orientation” and the genital area labeled as “sex.”

A page entitled “Heterosexism” asks students to answer a three-part question: “How are LGBTQ people discriminated against or mistreated in the United States, in your local community and in your school?”

Afterall, it's easier to ask for forgiveness than for permission.

Here is an idea. Sue them as if he was distributing pornography to the students. Bring in physchologists who believe the children were damaged by the teachers actions. Play the game the left has played and don’t back down till they fire the principal.

This is the time they are wasting - I don't even mind that they are doing this as much - just the fact that taxdollars are going to spend time on this kind of crap.

So many schools no longer educate, they just indoctrinate.

But, but, but the proponents of Prop 8 lied when they said homosexuality would be taught to our children.

How did they label the tail end of the digestive system?

If the population would just become more homosexual we could have less useless breathers destroying the planet, doncha know. This is the key to understanding the love affair between corporate media, gays, public educators, and the radical greens.

It takes a generation to reshape a society.
