In a recent vote, the Nampa School District decided to ban discussions on gender identity, transgenderism, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/another-eyewitness-account-from-the-stop-the-steal-event-at-the-us-capitol-including-a-memorial-to-ashli-babbit-pictures-video\/\" title=\"Another Eyewitness Account from the Stop the Steal Event at the US Capitol \u2014 Including a Memorial to Ashli Babbit (Pictures, Video)\">sexual orientation<\/a> in their classrooms.<\/p>\n<p class=\"speakable\">This move comes amidst a national debate between parents and educators over the introduction of homosexual and transgender politics in schools.<\/p>\n<p>The new policy, which passed after a second reading, applies to all grade levels. It places the responsibility of discussing and educating children about gender identity and related subjects in the hands of parents, rather than the schools or its staff.<\/p>\n<h2>Idaho Takes a Stand: No Gay Agenda in Classrooms<\/h2>\n<p>Board members voted 3-1 in favor of the ban, recognizing the rights of parents to address non-academic subjects with their children.

She also highlighted the potential impact on suicide rates, which are higher among the gay and transgender demographics.<\/p>\n<p>Mandy Simpson, a math teacher and trustee in the district, voted against the policy, citing the potential discomfort it may cause students and its potential impact on the quality of education.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If kids don&#8217;t feel safe in a classroom, they will not even begin to try to learn,&#8221; Simpson explained.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>seen a growing pushback from conservatives against left-wing sexual ideology infiltrating schools, with the Nampa School District in Idaho recently joining the fight.
