This is the executive summary of the second Preserve Innocence report, an innitiative of the American Principles Project. The full Innocence Report is available here (PDF file). Please also bookmark www.PreserveInnocence.org to find future updates. This Innocence Report focuses on the use of Safe Schools programs to achieve certain non-heterosexual social and political agenda. Kevin Jennings -- the founder of The Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) and presently the Assistant Deputy Secretary for the Office of Safe and Drug-Free Schools at the U.S. Department of Education -- pioneered that tactic in Massachusetts the 1990s. Now, several school districts have implemented or are in the process of testing Safe-School programs based on that model. In addition, several other advocacy groups have developed similar programs. The GLSEN model suffers from several defects. It is deceptive in that its dominant purpose is not school safety but to propagate acceptance and affirmative support for LGBT lifestyles. It often denigrates the dignity of students by asking them to reveal deeply personal experiences or views. And it interferes with the associative rights of parents to direct the spiritual and values formation of their children; it raises concepts to children that go to the heart of the family and that include fundamental religious views, and it does this far before parents could reasonably be expected to have introduced such concepts to their children. GLSEN has been highly effective in propagating its views. In varying degrees, it has garnered the support or acknowledgement of much of the relevant professional elite. Professional teachers, school administrator and counseling organizations have endorsed one or more GLSEN programs or initiatives. It has laid an imposing infrastructure for its future and continuing activities --an infrastructure that has all the more elite heft with its founder now in a senior position at the U.S. Department of Education. |
