Last week in a bold, anti-parent move, the school board of Northern California’s Rocklin Academy Gateway voted unanimously to keep a policy that allows books that promote transgenderism to be read to children as young as five, but added a policy that they would warn parents before they did.
Despite notifying the parents, however, the school board denied a proposal to give parents the right to pull their children out of classes that would teach the children pro-transgender education, essentially making the notification rule useless. (Article from Red State)
Many people assert that there is nothing parents can do—or that they don’t care what their children are being taught. I disagree on both counts. Listen in!
