When classes resume in public schools next month, parents across the nation should expect notification from school administrators about any “LGBTQ+ inclusive” instruction and the right to opt their children out of it for religious reasons.
The Supreme Court on June 27 ruled in favor of Maryland parents, many of them Christians and Muslims, who complained that their school district forced instruction about LGBT lifestyles on their young children. In a 6–3 vote, justices determined that although the district said the instruction consisted of lessons in mutual respect, the materials conveyed and reinforced viewpoints about same-sex marriage.
