A Christian college in Michigan is ending its partnership with a Florida school that got attention for its policy on teaching students about Michelangelo's David statue.
."Hillsdale College is no longer affiliated with Tallahassee Classical School," which previously held a license to use Hillsdale's curricular materials, the college said in a statement.Tallahassee Classical School, a Christian school that opened in 2020, gained attention when its former principal, Hope Carrasquilla, resigned after parents were angered that sixth graders were shown a photo of the nude Renaissance sculpture David.
Bishop said 97% of parents agreed to the lesson this year, but the 3% of parents who did not agree were"entitled to have that opinion." "To set the record straight: This drama around teaching Michelangelo's 'David' sculpture, one of the most important works of art in existence, has become a distraction from, and a parody of, the actual aims of classical education," the statement reads."Of course, Hillsdale's K-12 art curriculum includes Michelangelo's 'David' and other works of art that depict the human form.
