So students were given the option of busy work or hearing a lecture.

How many opted for voluntary busy work?

I don’t know how many opted out. He says that most wanted to go to the lecture. I would have if I was in high school. Why would anyone choose to do an assignment of any kind, when they could go to a seminar on sex and drugs?

I think the kids feel that they are being treated as adults, and they like that kind of discussion. Unfortunately, high school kids are not adults, and many are far from being adults.

According to my nephew, drugs and sex are very prevalent at the school. He laughed when I suggested that the content was inappropriate for the age group. He asked how can the content be inappropriate when they are all engaged in the actual behavior.

I am glad that my children are not being raised in Boulder.
