East Penn School District has released the URLs that parents have been requesting since May. The American Family Association of Pennsylvania (AFA of PA) became involved after meeting with concerned parents in the district. It was appalling that the district required the parents to jump through numerous hoops and even after all that still refusing to allow parents access to material to which their children in Emmaus High School were exposed, stating it was protected information because it was a student project.
Action Alert – Parental Rights Under Attack in East Penn School District
Are parental rights dead in the East Penn School District? It appears that they are as they refuse to respond to parents’ request for the URLs of pro-homosexual and pro-transgender videos shown to the entire student body of the high school the last week of April leading up to the Day of Silence. These parents’ simple request has been twisted from a parental rights issue to an attack on them and accusations that they are haters and bullies. What is the school district hiding?
News Release – Parents Fight for Rights in East Penn School District
The last week of April, leading up to the Gay Day of Silence, students at Emmaus High School in the East Penn School District located near Allentown, PA were subjected to pro-homosexual and pro-transgender videos without parents’ knowledge. The school district has refused to release the URL’s of those videos to concerned parents. Diane Gramley, president of the American Family Association of Pennsylvania, attended both June school board meetings to advocate for the parents’ right to gain access to the URLs in order to know what their children viewed.
