Alassë,

The school board might be criticized a bit for failing to advise the parents ahead of time that controversial subject material was about to be introduced. It does seem a mite distant and out of touch.

Superintendent Ash’s point is well made – the location is in Massachusetts, where homosexual marriage is legal.

School boards are commonly elected – and unelected – as the Dover School Board recently discovered in re their decision to introduce into a Science class the controversial theory of ID. If there are enough parents who feel strongly enough about the subject to invest the effort to vote the next time they have the opportunity to do so, then the issue will be resolved to the satisfaction of the majority of good citizens.
