  • Sounds like you learned a ton about straight sex, especially given that most sex Ed programs only tell students to abstain. You learned something about condoms, which I assume means that you learned how to put one on.

    In most of the country, sex Ed is one video about puberty and then in health being told to abstain from sex to avoid pregnancy and STDs with detailed descriptions about the pain and torture of STDs.

    It would be superhelpful if sex Ed programs were expanded upon your curriculum to dispel sex myths, like women can’t get pregnant if they are on top or take a shower right after. It would also be good to discuss how to prevent harm during vaginal and anal sex.


  • That’s interesting, I didn’t realize that a photograph counted as part of the directory information. I figured that was why photos are included in the list of items on the parent consent forms sent out every year.

    It was my understanding (from admin, teacher professional orgs, and teacher unions) that pictures on websites and social media need consent to be posted. So we were told that any student without a consent form had to be edited out or blurred on any picture posted anywhere.







  • The only falsehood about their statement is the implication that all prisons are for-profit.

    For example, Louisisna has state and privately owned prisons. Many, if not all, of Louisiana’s private for-profit prisons are owned by members of law enforcement. This gives them incentive to fill the cells as much as possible. The rules for these prisons are much more lax than the state-run prisons. While the state prisons have libraries and vocational training, the Private prisons usually don’t. At least that’s my understanding from a few years back.

    Louisiana is also not the only state with private prisons, however most, if not all states, have public prisons as well.
