Good evening

As a parent of children in VA public schools & a polyvinyl school teacher I feel this would lead us down a terrible path. There are those that say "parental rights" without taking into consideration parents that do not think the same way as them.  They already have the option to opt out of certain books used in the classroom to follow curriculum standards. Please reconsider approving this & think about any negative effects this will hand on your eductors.
