(THE BLAZE) – A proposed public charter school in Brooklyn, New York, aims to provide a “genderful,” “affirming” learning environment where young children are encouraged to “explore their gender,” the New York Post reported Thursday.
The Miss Mayor Middle, a proposed, tuition-free public charter school, has recently sparked backlash for attempting to create an educational institution that would “prioritize total inclusivity by ensuring that policies and resources are designed with and for trans, gender-nonconforming, queer and ally students and families.”
Children as young as nine years old, in grades five through nine, would be encouraged to “explore their gender, embrace their own identity, and decide how they will authentically walk through the world.”
