Parents Blast High School LGBTQ Assignment Given To Their Kids

Southern California parents blasted their kids’ school after a math teacher at Rancho Buena Vista high school gave his students an LGBTQ assignment in which they were to pick either being gay or lesbian and “coming out.”

During a school meeting on Tuesday, parents spoke out at a Vista Unified School District meeting over what was labeled as a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) assignment given to freshman in an elective seminar class that was supposedly to deal with teaching kids how to be socially current, NBC7 San Diego reported.

According to photos of the instruction, students were told, “Stand in a circle. Each of you is now gay or lesbian, and you are about to begin your coming out process. You cannot talk for the rest of this activity.”

“I don’t see how this is part of the California curriculum for education,” parent James Leon told board members. “There is nothing that it does other than groom children.”

“It’s not okay. It’s disgusting and it should not be allowed,” he added. “I don’t think this assignment should ever be taught to any children. It’s does not do anything other than groom them. It should not be allowed. Anybody who teaches this should be fired immediately.”

Leon said when his daughter got the assignment, she told him “right away when she got home. She said, ‘Dad, you have to hear this.’ She wanted to show me what was going on because she knows I am not for teaching any of that stuff in school.”

Leon’s daughter was one of six kids who walked out of the classroom after being given the instruction. He was joined by others who spoke out about it at the meeting, including a bus driver with the school district.

“I am totally disgusted,” a district bus driver said. “I am ashamed I work for the district, and you guys allow this to happen in our schools.”

One teacher spoke out in support of the assignment and against the criticism the school has faced after the instructions were shared on social media.

“People with no connection to our community or even our state have started to flood RBV social media accounts with additional unfounded accusations and slanderous statements,” the teacher said.
