Excellent news.
I am so sorry that a child has to be introduced to the legal system at such an early age.
This is so wrong. They’re forced to do adult things when they should be having the best time of their lives.
Some teachers should be jailed.

MASSIVE Victory in Case Out of Nevada
You may recall that last summer, the ACLJ stepped in to assist two parents in their fight against a Nevada public school district that forced their child to perform a pornographic script, lied to the parents, and then prohibited the mother from reading the script given to her child before the school board. Our clients’ daughter, who was 15 at the time, was required to perform a sexually explicit monologue prepared by another student, and edited by the teacher, before the entire class. The monologue – which many will find offensive – is below (edited by our attorneys by adding ***):
I don’t love you. It’s not you, it’s just (looks down) your d***. I don’t like your d*** or any d*** in that case. [Only the first two sentences of the script are included due to the progressively increasing profanity and description of sexual acts. The entire explicit monologue can be found here.]
After learning about this horrific assignment, our clients tried several different avenues to bring their concerns to the school but found it unresponsive to their requests and complaints. Ultimately, a lawsuit was filed against the school district, and the ACLJ, alongside Lex Tecnica Ltd. (a firm committed to protecting students, parents, and teachers from the Clark County School District), represented this family in federal court.
This week the United States District Court of Nevada denied
the motion to dismiss [the daughter’s] compelled-speech claims brought under the Nevada Constitution and the First Amendment because she sufficiently alleges that she was compelled to read an explicit monologue that lacked a legitimate pedagogical purpose.
This ruling, while just an intermediary step, is a significant win for parental rights, as courts are generally unwilling to interfere with teachers’ decisions on a student’s education and curriculum content.
