DC Public Schools prepared a new 43-page document on standards for teaching health issues in schools. It included guidelines for teaching nutrition, emotional health, sex-ed, and drug awareness, among other topics. This is the Washington Times lede about the new plan:
Proposed guidelines for a sex-education curriculum to be used in D.C. Public Schools recommend that middle-school students learn to define sexual orientation and be taught about homosexuality.
Interesting that this is the scare-mongering tidbit of choice, though, isn’t it? More prominent than the ‘they’re-telling-our-9th-graders-where-and-how-to-get-abortions’ quote later in the article. Do gays trump abortion in all wingnut hysteria? Or just Moonite-sanctioned wingnut hysteria?
