Angry parents stampeded a California charter school board meeting Monday after a teacher read her kindergarten class picture books about transgenderism to affirm a gender dysphoric classmate. During the class, parents say, the gender dysphoric boy also switched clothes to look more like a girl in a gender reveal.
Parents were not notified beforehand of the discussion or the classmates psychological condition, and learned about it when their confused kindergarteners arrived home from school that day.
The kindergartners came home very confused, about whether or not you can pick your gender, whether or not they really were a boy or a girl, Karen England of the Capitol Resource Institute told CBS News.
My daughter came home crying and shaking so afraid she could turn into a boy, a parent said at the public meeting.
Rocklin Academy is a network of related charter schools, which are public schools typically run by nonprofit institutions, private companies, or school boards of local leaders and parents. Charter school board meetings must be public, since they are fully taxpayer-funded. Rocklins high school, Western Sierra, is ranked No. 1 in the Sacramento area for college readiness by U.S. News and World Report.
Unlike for sex ed content, schools do not need to notify parents about classroom instruction related to gender identity, school officials say. Teachers spoke out in support of their colleagues surprise transgender book club, with seventh grade teacher Kelly Bryson objecting to banned books or book lists, or selective literature for schoolchildren.
While the parents negatively affected insist their children are too young to discuss transgenderism and be confused about a core aspect of their person, trans advocates disagree, suggesting preschool as the appropriate time to begin telling children their biological sex is meaningless.

Because a child is never to young to be abused / brain washed by the State.
Absolutely sick, blatant child abuse
Public school is no place for a child.
Parents rightly nail the school district for forcing this on their children.
“Hey, Teacher! Leave the kids alone!”

This was a charter school...not sure if its public. Just think if we get SCHOOL CHOICE all of this will stop-NOT!
The boards will be filled with progs and $$ from Bill Gates
Charter schools are public. All charter schools. Nothing personal, but the fact that anyone out there doesn’t know this is part of the problem.
If we made Private Schools ILLEGAL, all this crap would end overnight. Or if passed a Constitutional Amendment at the State Level through a Ballot Initiative:
All persons that can be classified as a “Public Employee” at any time in thier life, shall be prohibited from using any primary education source other than the Public School they are assigned to in perpetuity.
Liberals. Sick sick sick.
State sanctioned child abuse. Sorry, people it is time to save the kids....home school.
If I remember my biology correctly, every fetus starts out female hand about half turn into a male.
Pre-school?
How did I ever survive without this type of information? All we had then were crayons, glue and a mat for nap time.
Oh, for heaven's sake. All classes have book lists - one can't read everything. All classes have "selective literature." One can't read everything. And nothing in the U.S. is "banned," period.
I don’t believe CHOICE is going to be the solution. It will end up up with Common Core also-the problem is the only way out is home school at this point. It appears that many many kids are going to be indoctrinated and will rule over our kids unless our leaders GET IT soon.
I’m sure there were boys upset that they might turn into a girl who could have been reported, but that would be... sexist or something, so even the Federalist is contaminated with the PC hive mind.
I don’t think “choice” is a panacea, myself. People will always make choices with which I disagree. However, I think choice is the only solution consistent with our constitutional system, and that the funding of “choice” needs to be private pay or private charity.
“blatant child abuse”
Totally agree. This is apparently what ‘teachers’ are being taught about ‘teaching’ these days. This starts at the university level. Remember, Bill Ayers is a retired Professor from the School of Education at the University of Illinois. This is also where the problem starts in journalism - at the universities. What passes for ‘intellectualism’ in this day and age is utterly pathetic.
This guy in my class called me girl so I gave him the business, and then he decked me.
It’s exactly why all these millenials today are completely and utterly out of their minds with far leftism. When I went to college in the late 70s early 80s I had no problem being a conservative. I even had Reagan bumper stickers on my car. Today though? Forget it, I would be attacked and my car would be destroyed.
yes once gov $$ comes in then the curriculum becomes government approved
