Parents and lawmakers express outrage over a gender identity assignment given to Santa Fe ISD students during a College of the Mainland dual credit course, sparking debate over curriculum content.
A psychology assignment teaching gender identity is enraging parents of Santa Fe ISD. On Monday, a "Genderbread Person" worksheet asking students about their gender identity, gender expression, and anatomical sex was given dual credit to students attending College of the Mainland. The assignment caused parents to speak out at College of the Mainland’s board meeting on Wednesday.
"In the state of Texas, we ban gender modification of minors and this curriculum indicates that a child can change their sex," said Senator Mayes Middleton.Santa Fe ISD responded by saying: "This is a dual credit COM course. We have a partnership with COM, and they offer classes on our campus so that our students don’t have to travel to COM. However, we can assure you that we do not agree with this assignment, and it is not SFISD curriculum.
