In the name of safety, they will inform the parents that a student is infected, but to protect the one they won't tell who it is.

I appreciate your reply, but on the above point -- no, under the federal law, they will not even inform the parents "a student" is infected. They will only tell you that students are infected nationwide, and more students are being infected all the time.

Like I said - it's a different world we live in. In addition to now opposing sex education, I now believe in young people getting married sooner. Let them. It's better than having multiple partners and getting HIV. And, for the life of me, I will never understand how a man in this day and age can go to a prostitute. It's like playing Russian Roulette because condoms do break, and other unexpected things do happen.

My favorite game at school was King of the Mountain... Played on the snow/ice piles the plows left on the edge of the parking lot. Lots of shoving, kicking, sliding and falling down.

King of the Mountain is the greatest sport ever invented by childlike, not childish minds.

They will only tell you that students are infected nationwide, and more students are being infected all the time.

So, why do I need a federal law to tell me this?

Great for you guys in Florida. That is a big deal you folks need to straighten out there. I think the whole country needs to have the roles cleaned up.

The funny thing is that every so often I read liberal sites to see what they are thinking and when conservatives purge the voting records of fraud and dead people, liberals call that FIXING the vote unfairly! THE FIX IS IN! LOL

Libs have a real problem with one man one vote.

The federal law concerns the fact no one is allowed to disclose their knowledge of who has HIV. So, in short, you (and others) can't sue the school district and say "You should have told me about Bubba" and Bubba's parents can't sue the school district and say "Your disclosure resulted in discrimination against my kid by other kids." If Bubba's mom wants to voluntarily disclose to a teacher or a school district the fact her son's HIV infection, then, federal law requires that no one disclose such knowledge.
