9 hours agoSupreme Court let parents opt kids out of learning about LGBTQ+ people. Almost no one is doing it. - LGBTQ Nation
The Supreme Court recently ruled that a Maryland school district must allow parents to opt their children out of instruction relating to LGBTQ+ identities, but only a minuscule number of families have actually done so. Data from the Montgomery County School District, the largest in the state, shows that only 58 opt-out requests from 43 families have been submitted on religious grounds. With 160,000 students in the district, that means a measly 0.03% will be removed from the classroom when certain topics are discussed.
