When they meet next week, September 17, the school board members at Elk Grove Unified School District are expected to adopt a policy requiring parental consent before a child can participate in homosexual-themed clubs in elementary schools.
The demand for Elk Grove to adopt that policy came after parents learned the sponsoring teacher, Daniel Bishop, told the young students the new club for 8-year-olds and 9-year-olds was a safe space for “boys who crush on boys” and for “girls who crush on girls.”
The parents were helped by two groups, California Family Council and the National Center for Law and Policy.
