Hat tip to Sister Toldjah:
From the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel [emphasis mine]:
Parents are angry and school leaders are promising action in response to a “Heterosexual Questionnaire,” approved by two teachers, that asked students questions such as:
“If you have never slept with someone of your same gender,
then how do you know you wouldn’t prefer it?”The questionnaire was distributed by a student organization, which then led a full class-period discussion. Two teachers approved distribution of the survey. The principal did not.
Both Principal Duane Woelfel and Patty Ruth, president of the Port Washington-Saukville School Board, said the survey was inappropriate and that proper authorization was not given before it was brought into classrooms.
The teachers who Woelfel said are responsible for the survey - social studies teacher Sarah Olson and communications teacher Julie Grudzinski - could not be reached for comment.
Woelfel estimated that the survey was given to about 400 of the school’s 930 students on April 25, the day before the national Day of Silence, an annual event co-sponsored by the New York City-based Gay, Lesbian & Straight Education Network.
Freshman Jaime Reuter said the survey caused such a stir that, even though her class didn’t take the survey, her social studies teacher made it part of a class discussion a couple of days later.
Reuter said she would have been offended if asked to take the survey. “I shouldn’t have to answer that because it’s private information,” she said.
Remember, this episode was provided through gracious “donations” to your local government school system via your “voluntary” tax dollars.
And yet politicians wonder why so many people are demanding vouchers, or at least taxpayer choice as to where to send their children.
