An Idaho school district voted to ban classroom discussions on gender identity this week in the latest battle by conservatives to keep left-wing sexual ideology out of the schools.

The Nampa School District in Idaho will prohibit discussions or lessons on gender identity, transgenderism, and sexual orientation in the classroom.

The past few years have seen a national debate between parents and leftist educators’ attempts to spread homosexual and transgender politics in the classroom.

The Idaho school board passed the new policy after reading it a second time, and it will affect all grade levels.

In a 3-1 vote, board members chose to leave the responsibility of discussing, addressing, and educating children about gender identity and other related subjects to the parents and not the schools or its staff.

The Nampa School District will recognize the “rights of parents to discuss and educate their child on every subject matter, especially the non-academic subject matters not addressed in the District,” The Idaho Press reported.
