CWA: School Tells Kids to Hide Pro-‘Gay’ Propaganda From Parents
Concerned Women for America ^ | 3-13-2007

Posted on 03/13/2007 12:38:00 PM PDT by EternalVigilance

Washington, D.C. — In a shocking and brazen act of governmental abuse of parental rights, Deerfield High School (DHS) in Deerfield, Illinois, has required fourteen-year-old freshmen to attend a “Straight Gay Alliance Network” (GSA) panel discussion led by “gay” and “lesbian” upperclassmen during a “freshman advisory” class which secretively featured inappropriate discussions of a sexual nature in promotion of high-risk homosexual behaviors.

Not only has DHS required that its young and impressionable freshmen be exposed to radical homosexual propaganda, the school has further required that students sign a “confidentiality agreement” promising not to tell anyone – including their own parents – about the discussion.

Matt Barber, Policy Director for Cultural Issues with Concerned Women for America (CWA), said of the scandal: “This is unbelievable. It’s not enough that students at Deerfield High are being exposed to improper and offensive material relative to unhealthy and high-risk homosexual behaviors, but they’ve essentially been told by teachers to lie to their parents about it.

“This goes to the heart of the homosexual agenda. The professional propagandists in the ‘gay-rights’ lobby know the method all too well. If you can maintain control of undeveloped and impressionable youth and spoon-feed them misinformation, lies and half-truths about dangerous, disordered and extremely risky behaviors, then you can control the future and ensure that those behaviors are not only fully accepted, but celebrated. That’s what homosexual activists from GSA are attempting to do, and that’s what DHS is clearly up to as well.”

Dr. George Fornero, superintendent of DHS’ Dist. 113, told CWA that the district “made a mistake” by requiring children to sign the confidentiality agreement and that it would be entirely aboveboard and honest with parents in the future. However, as Barber noted, the damage has already been done: “Until DHS and other government schools across the country are made to stop promoting the homosexual agenda, kids will continue to be exposed to — and encouraged to participate in — a lifestyle that places them at high risk for life-threatening disease, depression and spiritual despair,” said Barber.

Remarkably, even after the school district’s surreptitious actions were exposed, parents were nonetheless told that they were not welcome to sit in on the “freshman advisory” and were not permitted to have access to materials used in compiling its activist curriculum.

The parents of these children should demand the firing of everyone involved.

Agreed. Post haste.

One of the big problems, though, is that the leaders of the Republican Party in IL are a bunch of pro-homosexual agenda RINOs. But, hopefully local action is enough to put a stop to this.

It's time to rid the GOP of liberals/RINOs. This election could be the turning point.

AT most, the genetic, hormonal predisposition appears to be statistically

no more than 10-20% of the variance.

Environmental conditioning is much more powerful.

REgardless, as in alcoholics . . . the genes do not drive the alcoholic to the bar and force a drink down the throat.

Sounds like Fist-gate-west. No doubt the usual suspect butt-sex apologists will show up any minute to rip the parents and defend the school.

"Don't tell anybody" is a classic perve tactic.

Thus revealing the true agenda of these creeps.

I want to know why homosexuality and deviant sex was considered important enough to warrant a school assembly in the first place. I assume that every DHS student must be testing above grade level in English and science and math, or they wouldn't have a minute to waste on this sort of thing...

How did schools, boards and districts get the power and authority to dictate such matters ??
What laws give them that authority and power ??
Who passed those laws, if they do indeed, exist ??
Are they still in office ??
If so, why ??

I remember seeing this about 2/3 years ago on a thread about Massachusetts schools. I have to think what it was about; but there was mention that kids were told not to tell their parents.

Take government out of schools, failing that, don't send your kids to government schools. Failing that, get the activists out of schools. They are not teachers, they have no degrees at all, they are there solely to promote an agenda. And with impressionable young minds, they will succeed with some, and somewhat succeed with many.

If govt is going to stay in schools, then something needs to be done to ban activism from elementary and high schools.

It varies state to state.

But the bottom line is this: State legislatures and the federal government have for all practical purposes taken over the local schools. They allow their NEA masters to run things. Parents and taxpayers have little real control over anything. The PTA is nothing but an arm of the NEA, designed solely to fool parents.

The school board itself has little power over budgets - the state mandates where almost all of the funds must be allocated. IOW, the school board is mainly left in place to maintain the illusion of local control.

All of the whining by education types about "parental involvement" are disingenuous. Human nature being what it is, people will not take responsibility over something they have no authority over. This is a basic concept of self-government. Parents have no ownership.

Figures. Under Romney, MA public schools were inundated with gay propaganda. Illinois is working hard at becoming Taxachusetts West.

"As long as these schools think that its only the radical minority that have a problem with what is being taught, they will continue to try and slip their agenda in. The fact is, most parents would have a big problem with this going on, but either don't know about it or don't realize the extent of the damage that this is doing both to their children, their society, and their country!"



Agreed. And while yanking your own kids out is really not enough, it's a start. We cannot forget all those vulnerable children left behind, whose parents may not know.

These activists groups get into the schools under the guise of "safe schools" which is hypocrisy to the extreme! They are promoting a dangerous even deadly lifestyle, to innocent minds who don't know any better yet. Minds who will (some) be open to anything that is against what their parents feel, simply out of rebellion, and they KNOW IT. Imagine if activists were in schools promoting any number of other behaviors that are dangerous to their health. They would be run out of town by the very people promoting the most dangerous of all!
