Model policies comments
 

I am glad to see model policies, such as this draft policy, attempt to protect children from inappropriate sexual content and empower parents in their roles as the primary protectors and educators of their children. Parents are best positioned to know what is appropriate for their children. 

Rather than including example policy documents, please revise this draft policy to expressly mandate and require actions that every school must take to ensure sexually explicit materials are correctly identified and reasonably made available for review by parents to allow them to protect their innocent children from inappropriate material.  Thank you.
