Trust teachers, who are educated professionals, to make decisions that are in the best interest of the students they serve. Requiring parental permission for controversial material opens a Pandora's box that will degrade the quality of education available to students. Any material could be considered controversial depending upon parental perspective. I implore you to reject this amendment. Thank you.
