The News & Observer ran a hyperventilating report this morning about the growing trend to question the role of public schools.
This story out of New Jersey is just one of thousands around the country that have people wondering if their kids are best served in government schools:
To celebrate women’s history month this year, grade school boys are being forced to dress up like women at the Maple Shade School District in Burlington County, New Jersey and some parents are none too happy about it.
According to Beth F. Norcia, Principal of the Maude Wilkins Elementary School, the cross-dressing scheme was set up as a contest to celebrate women’s history month among the Burlington County schools.
It turns out that the cross-dressing day is meant to complement the anti-bullying campaign backed by gay activists nationwide. Is it any wonder that some are questioning the role that public schools have chosen to play over the past 20 or 30 years?
