Montgomery Starts Sex-Ed Pilot Program
From WaPo:
A health teacher at Argyle Middle School in Silver Spring spoke to eighth-graders yesterday about sexual orientation. And so began a pilot program in Montgomery County schools that delves deeper into issues of sexual and gender identity than most other school systems in the Washington region, if not the nation.
The field test, which will start in five other schools by the end of the month and -- barring legal intervention -- the rest of the county in fall, marks the first time Montgomery teachers have broached homosexuality as a part of the official lesson plan in eighth- and 10th-grade health classes.
How do you people keep your children in public school exactly? this is going to go nation wide? You had better start calling your elected cockroaches in washington and your local school boards and express your outrage over this.
