There's growing pushback not just from parents but from one of the district's board members over what the children should or shouldn't be learning about sex and gender.
School board member Jolene Daly says the plan dives too deep into matters that are too adult for children. She's a licensed family therapist who says the lessons could cause students psychological harm.
CBS13 reviewed the material at the district's office. It includes chapters titled "Consent Plus Boundaries," "Identity Plus Expression" and "Puberty Health and Hygiene," which include discussions about different kinds of intercourse. "The hygiene portion of it tells them to make sure that they wash their hands and their genitals," Daly told CBS Sacramento over Zoom. "These 10 and 11-year-olds don't have the capacity to understand some of the information that is in the text."
"I think it's important to talk about it before those changes happen," the mother said. "I think normalizing things makes it better." The board took public comment on the material Monday night, and parents were able to see the material for themselves at the district's professional development building They'll vote on this matter on June 28.
