A school got caught pushing young students to an explicit porn site, but when a demand letter sent on behalf of parents failed to produce results, the American Center for Law and Justice filed a federal lawsuit.
“Parents should not be forced to choose between public education and their family’s values. The Constitution draws a bright line: Parents, not the state, decide how and when their children are introduced to sexual content. Schools are not free to override that authority or to ‘correct’ the family’s moral instruction through compulsory exposure to explicit material,” explained the legal team.
“When officials discard that line, the courts must restore it. The ACLJ is taking decisive legal action to protect children, vindicate parents’ rights, and compel this school district – and other districts watching – to adopt clear, enforceable policies that respect the Constitution. We are resolute: No student should be forced to view pornography in class. No parent should be kept in the dark.”
The district is the Watertown School District in New York.
The complaint charges that the district forced seventh-grade students to view blatantly pornographic images during class “over multiple days” without any parental notice, consent, or opt-out opportunity.
“What happened in the Watertown City School District was not an accident. It was a constitutional violation of the highest order,” the ACLJ report explained.
