School teachers and principals have to have the authority, and the mandate, to suspend or otherwise penalize students who violate good order and decorum on school grounds. That includes uncouth or inflammatory language, PDA's, clothing that creates issues, verbal aggressiveness, and racial or sexual labeling.

Higher standards are necessary for everyone in order to maintain a learning environment, and there's no need for teachers to address varieties of sexual behavior at all, except to say that no "sexual behavior" at all is tolerated on school grounds.

Wouldn't that about cover it?

In a "normal" society, yes, that would cover it! However, those who like to "push buttons" would sue (and with all the liberal judges, they would more than likely win) causing schools to stop standing up to the idiots and button-pushers!

Schools should be a place to go to learn reading, writing, arithmetic, civics and science! The only other things offered should be either college-prep courses or specific accredited vocational courses! That way when a student graduates they are either prepared to go to college or prepared to offer worthy skills to their local community.

And note, I said "OFFERED!" That means, if I don't think my child needs any of those courses, then they do not have to take them!
