Ruling on MCPS LGBT curriculum case coming this morning

Anonymous
Does anyone have a link to the actual decision? I’ve tried googling, but can only find a 135 page Syllabus that says it “constitutes no part of the opinion”..

I thought their message was fine. What's the problem with saying "It also sends a chilling message to many valued members of our diverse community"?


You are failing to see the issue here.

MCPS = LGBTQ lobby

Court simply said that parents have right to opt out. MCPS allows opt out for lots of things. It does nto send any message to LGBTQ community. Only a LGBTQ lobby group will interepret court ruling like that.



The other things kids were opting out for were for older kids, and they could sit quietly in a room by themselves, but five-year-olds can’t.

The ruling actually gave MCPS and now they don’t have to keep the kids in school and find something else for them to do. They can make them stay home.


Nobody is going to leave kids of any age unsupervised in school. Are you familiar with school today? Kids of all ages can get sent to the media center/library.


Exactly. It’s a perfect compromise. Everyone should be happy.

So why isn’t the left?


Actually, the left is quite happy. The religious bigots stay home when they’re teaching elementary kids about everyone.

They can’t be sent to the library when they’re five years old. The librarian isn’t just sitting there waiting for your bigoted child to show up.

Parents will be notified and they will keep their kids home and get an unexcused absence.

The best of both worlds.


Ha. No. That’s not how it’s going to work.

If I have a 5 YO and I need to be in work or travel that day, you can be sure she’ll be in school. The school will have to accommodate her during objectionable “story time.”

Let’s talk about the budget again…


I’m a taxpayer and good with the money spent on sensing a message of support to an extremely marginalized community.


The extremely marginalized community is the one that includes the kids who graduate quasi-illiterate because of lack of funding, not the luxury groups who have the wealth and time to decide that “messaging” is the most important educational issue.

Keep reading. The syllabus is only the first few pages summarizes the decisions. Look at page 7 of the pdf.

Ha ha no that’s how it works now thanks to the Supreme Court.

You have the option to keep your child at home or if they’re older they can be sent to a lunchroom.

But the court said it would be too much on every single school system to be able to have a babysitter for your bigot child so I’m sorry but if your religion is so important you’re gonna have to take off.

Of course a 5 year can get sent to the library and have the librarian expect that he will behave. Such low standards for children.

Actually what’s more likely to happen is teachers will quit reading the books altogether, as several here have stated. Because they don’t want to deal with this.

You act like it’s just one kid one time every blue moon. It’s impossible to track. And now five-year-olds do not walk to the library by themselves. That’s what the Supreme Court said. It’s too much to track. Stay home.

No, they won’t. What will happen is the bigots will find it too difficult to keep picking their kids up or keeping them home and they’ll eventually just get over the fact that these kids have to learn that sometimes boys marry boys.

My sister-in-law’s a pediatrician and a lot of anti-VAX or people who want to have alternate schedules are such as zealots with their first shot, but then they can’t keep track of them. They can’t get into public schools.. and they give up because they don’t really have conviction.

So you’re good with more school shootings then right? Because it is the focus in connection and belonging that is preventative and improves school safety


Ma’am we’re talking about homos.

In what world do you think you can just “make” children stay home? That’s not the way it works sweetheart. You now have to find something else for the 5 year olds to do instead. Otherwise you’re discriminating based on religion, which is not legal.
