Every student graduating from a high school in Massachusetts should have a certain level of accomplishment, at least in English and math. I don't think the students are well-served by social promotion. As a parent of three kids, I feel the schools are there for education, not a tool for somebody's agenda. I want my kids to learn what I learned in school. I want them to learn math and science and English and history.
Young children are impressionable.
When you let people into the schools with an agenda and you have a captive audience, we should be worried. That brings up the question of the Protection of Marriage Act. Understand that I am not anti-gay or homophobic. In fact, more should be done to promote civility and equal compassion. But marriage is something that has an historical and societal basis and once you start taking down societal norms, I wonder what will happen to society.
