Representative Dale Hawkins introduced RS 32404 to require schools to publish textbooks, syllabi and supplemental materials online and to prohibit classroom instruction on sexual orientation or gender identity in kindergarten through third grade; lawmakers pressed the sponsor on vagueness, timing and operational impacts and the RS was introduced.

The full story

Representative Dale Hawkins of District 2 asked the committee to introduce RS 32404, a bill that would require public schools to publish all learning materials — including textbooks, course syllabi and supplemental materials — on district websites by October of each year and would prohibit classroom instruction by school personnel on sexual orientation or gender identity from kindergarten through grade 3 or “in a manner that is not age appropriate or developmentally appropriate for students.”
