EVERY school talks to elementary school kids about gender identity. What you’re asking is if they acknowledge and discuss the existence of trans and non-binary people. Just be precise.

Not the case. Experience with multiple independent schools. Some are silent on the subject, as many feel they should be in elementary schools. What is the driving force to have these discussions at such a young age?

Please tell me which ones are silent on the issue? I want to only apply to those!

The Catholic ones. The vast majority of the rest will include scandalous elementary books about all types of families and communities that focus on kindness.

I’m rubber, your glue, whatever you say bounces off of me and sticks to you.

Also, schools like NPS? Will read books and teach kindness and diversity, along with math, writing, reading and science! It’s almost as if kids can learn about the world AND academics.

Oh yes you’re right, anyone who is not responding the incessant screams for attention and to make people like you feel better about themselves is bigoted.

Not a Maret parent, but this one is so ridiculous. Maret paid to improve the field and a deal was signed for them to have access for HS sports. If you don't like the deal, then blame the city who agreed to it.

The deal was structured to be below the level for meaningful scrutiny and it was fine when a Market parent was on the city council. You can argue about whether Market was in the right or not, but it was definitely not a progressive move or a move that increased equity in the city

GROSS MARET. AND DON'T GET ME STARTED ON THE CHEVY CHASE DEAL. THE NEW PRINCIPLE IS HEADING INTO A MESS. I FEEL BAD FOR FAMILIES WHO GOT CAUGHT UP IN THIS MARET MESS.
