Parents Jeana Weng and Dan Glatz say they are ‘worried about safety’ and warn that ‘this is one more issue’ for students to want to leave the school district. <\/p>\n
Parents of first graders at a Washington state school had their concerns ignored by the local school board and administration after a teacher read a book on transgender issues to the class, according to a report. <\/p>\n
I Am Jazz \u2014 a children\u2019s book illustrating the transition of a two-year-old biological boy into a girl \u2014 was read to the first grade students of the Bellingham School District, sparking concerns from parents.<\/p>\n
However, both the school\u2019s administration and school board \u2014 whose president, Jennifer Mason, runs a sex toy shop in town open to “all-ages<\/u>” that only sells to those 16 and up \u2014 ignored the concerns of parents and refused to take action, according to Young Americans for Freedom (YAF), a conservative organization.<\/p>\n
An anonymous parent at the school emailed first-grade teacher asking if she had read the book to her class. <\/p>\n
“Yes, I did read this book,” the teacher replied. “As a district we are working hard to support all members of our school community and promote inclusion through understanding and compassion.”<\/p>\n
YAF posted a copy of the emails online. <\/p>\n
“Woke” curriculums in schools have come under scrutiny by parents recently. Harvey Goldman, a parent that formerly lived in New York City, was so fed up by the race-based curriculum in his daughter\u2019s school that he pulled her out and moved to Florida.<\/p>\n
“Little children don\u2019t need to feel bad about the color of their skin,” Goldman said on Fox and Friends<\/i> last month. “That\u2019s what they\u2019re teaching them, to feel bad about who they are.”<\/p>\n
Neither Baker nor Mason responded to Fox News\u2019 request for comment.<\/p>\n
