why do these stories always come out of Kansas anyway?
"It takes a special kind of stupid to teach children that vaginal sex and anal are examples of an abstinence-based curriculum."

    We'll said about "the creep". The problem is people like that can't handle any kind of conflict. Their brains melt

    Public school is absolute liberal bullshit. I resent paying taxes that support our own demise

    I didn't look that hard...my bad. I get super annoyed with a run-on resume of 'accomplishments', when at the end of it all... YOU'RE STILL AN ASSHOLE.

    No... you're not reading too much into this. You're seeing it for exactly what it is... the morons in charge are not reading enough into it and ignoring the obvious... perhaps they're more focused on their pensions.

    No cronyism going on there... by 'smart' people. I just wish (and this not directed at you) that people would start looking at a person's principles (actions/words/habits/decisions...) instead of their 'credentials'. Just because a person spent a lot of years in school doesn't mean they make logical decisions. As a matter of fact it seems to have to opposite effect. Which is amazing and colossally disappointing... BOTH

    the student took a picture of it with her phone.I cannot imagine what the principal and district officials were thinking, supporting the use of the poster. There is so much to learn in middle school as it is. I am sure some 12 and 13 year olds are having sex. the poster seems to almost encourage it. am I reading too much into this?

    Shrug... take a look at the credits... the nature of them... all related to manipulating society. Not describing society, or even analyzing society, but transforming it.

    I doubt he does, I doubt he cares. He is part of the system. There are not many anthropologist jobs. All of this talk about Data Driven bla bla bla is the result of computer companies and politician making deals to computerize education. The other side of it is the Corporations want students that are more prepared for the global arena. They want little robots that don't ask questions and don't piss people off.

    Except IT WON'T HAPPEN...and that is precisely why, they don't want parents to know. Then again, sooo many parents DO NOT PAY ATTENTION. School is day care and they're not concerned what goes on there or what and/or if their kids are learning all day long. Hell..and some are okay with it.

    I included it for a reason. These are the so called experts that are force feeding the education system Standards Based Education and Evidence based Data Driven whatever other buzz words. Think about it an Anthropologist owns a company that is part of the standards. Teachers have no input. Their principal answers to the Superintendent who answers to the State Superintendent who accepts the federal funds from the people making the backroom deals with the Anthropologist type company so they learn a global perspective of sex? WTH

    I like it, the poster sent home for review, that is. That's going to increase the attendance at the next PTA meeting.

    I don't care what their education back ground or what accolades they have manged to rack up...they are idiots.
    The letter from the superintendent states that parents are 'allowed" to opt their kids out of the program with written permission... UM...wouldn't it make more sense for the school to send home a copy of this poster attached to a permission slip to sign for their kids to ATTEND the program instead??? Wow. Not that I think this should be done at a school whatsoever, I'm just making a point. Again I say..IDIOTS!

    "Should" is the operative word here. And you 'should' have a say BEFORE it gets posted. Also, do you voluntarily pay for this 'service'?
