A Muslim civil rights group on Tuesday released an email and a memo in which Montgomery County Public Schools principals and administrators warned the district about potential problems with a planned LGBTQ curriculum that has become the focus of parental rights protests and a lawsuit.
The Council on American-Islamic Relations released an email and a “white-paper styled memorandum” expressing MCPS administrators’ concerns that some of the proposed LGBTQ+ “supplemental” items “are not appropriate for the intended age group, or in one case, not appropriate at all for young students.”
“However, due to the concerns shared earlier about the plot and nature of the books, this creates a significant concern by some parents about ‘indoctrination’ or ‘hidden agendas,’” the memo says. For example, “Pride Puppy,” a pre-kindergarten text about a “Pride parade” is said to depict a “drag queen.” “Love, Violet,” intended for fourth-grade students, tells the story of a “young school-age girl who falls in love with another girl in her class,” the document states.
The administrators’ concerns, obtained by CAIR under a public records request, support the objections parents have raised in recent months, the organization said.
