Starting in 2017, public schools in Washington State will have to teach children about gender identity beginning in kindergarten.

Our friends at the Family Policy Institute of Washington write,

The newly-minted health and physical education standards, released by the Washington Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI), will be implemented in schools across the state for the 2017-2018 school year.

As reported by The Daily Caller, the new standards require students to learn about gender identity and expression beginning in kindergarten.

  • Beginning in Kindergarten, students will be taught about the many ways to express gender.  Gender expression education will include information about the manifestations of traits that are typically associated with one gender. Crossdressing is one form of gender expression.
  • Third graders will be introduced to the concept of gender identity.  These children will be taught that they can choose their own gender.
  • Fourth graders will be expected to “define sexual orientation,” which refers to whether a person identifies as heterosexual, homosexual, or bisexual; they’ll also be taught about HIV prevention.  Children in fourth grade will be told that they can choose their sexual orientation.
  • Fourth and fifth graders will learn about the relativity of gender roles and why such roles are social constructs that are not inherent to who we are as male or female human beings.
  • Seventh graders will be expected to “distinguish between biological sex, gender identity, gender expression, and sexual orientation.”
  • High school students will critically “evaluate how culture, media, society, and other people influence our perceptions of gender roles, sexuality, relationships, and sexual orientation.”

These changes to education standards will transform public schools into a conduit for promoting the latest gender theories plaguing universities across the country.

    To whom it may concern:
    Being parent of graduates I’m so glad that they aren’t attending such ridiculous sitution as far as I’m concern, I always thought education was suppose to be more important than this stuff. I can’ imagine what a kindergarten
    would go through these are little children who don’t even understand math yet so, why put them through this. I know if my kids where still in school, I would take them out of your school district in a heart beat.
    Sincerely yours,

    Do none of these “education leaders and officials” remember what it was to be 5 years old? 7 or 10 years old? You play outside, learn about how great life can be, try new foods, make friends, play in the dirt, and yes, learn how to be nice and respectful to everyone. Why can’t it stay like that? Why make this into more of an issue than what it is? Adults are the ones making an issue where there is no issue. By explaining and teaching our young ones all our vast knowledge of this topic will only drive a wedge between these differences in people. Kindergarten, 2nd grade, 5th grade, are all time to learn about so much more than what gender your new friend identifies with. I will fight this till the end

    I’m expecting that parents will be given the opportunity to sign their kids out of such a curriculum, just as they are currently given the opportunity to sign their kids out of the FLASH curriculum.
