What was the teacher's expressed reason for playing the video? Was it a movement break, or tied to the lesson somehow? If you don't know, then you don't know enough to be outraged.

Nope. It was during instruction time.

Genuinely curious how you would voice this concern in a way that shows you view the teacher as a major partner with you in your child's education.

Email the teacher and say you were concerned about a video being played in class where there was kissing. Ask what the intention was. It’s not hostile it’s a legitimate question. We can’t be afraid of communication. These are our children. Be simple and non-judge mental in your phrasing.

What TS video was this?

It’s a READING class, not stupidity class.

Huh, I remember being in some super smart English class in high school and doing a poetry lesson that started with music each day, and then we'd read and talk about the lyrics.

No, Principal, this is wrong.

Email the teacher. So bizarre!

Seriously? This is an upper ES reading class where students are supposed to use texts for deeper understanding and the teacher is supposed to teach strategies for reading comprehension. The video shows teens kissing on the car.
Now we can see how hard some teachers work to rise the quality of our children’s education.
