On March 18, we presented to the School Committee this new, formalized diversity curriculum in preparation for next year, when we plan to pilot four to five short units in each elementary grade. Some units will focus on families, including families with single parents, foster parents, and gay and lesbian parents. Other units will focus on racial and ethnic diversity and other areas in which human beings differ from one another.
Why do they have to do this starting in KINDERGARTEN??

Isn’t there a gay group whose philosophy goes something as this: “If you don’t get them before 8, it’s too late.”
This safe schools stuff is BS too. All they need to teach kids is that picking on others for any reason is wrong. That's it! Schools used to frown on booing, where did that go?
NO, Why do we have public funded government schools?

I was a substitute teacher in Lexington Public Schools from 1998 - 2000. I’ve worked in Estabrook Elementary School which David Parker’s child attends. These schools are (or were) excellent from an academic standpoint. Lexington is a wealthy suburb close to Boston and the children in Lexington are the very bright children of professionals. The parents in Lexington are involved in their children’s education. The problem is that these relatively elite students (in other words, not poor or working class) are being taught the ultra-liberal “elite” mindset. I recall some minority students, but the majority were Caucasian. My guess is that the parents are vehement liberals who don’t really understand the consequences of loose sexual morals, living, as they do, in a posh suburban area.
Will they feature alcoholic or abusive, disfuntional families[besides the fag/lesbo ones, I mean].
This is just stupid. You don’t have to make a big deal about not saying anything about it.
