Another Reason to Send Surrender our Kids to Public Schools

They get to download internet porn for a grade...
A high school research assignment on Internet pornography was canceled after parents in this Cleveland suburb complained.

Superintendent Jeff Lampert said that although the teacher's apparent goal _ to discuss the harmful effects of pornography _ was well- intentioned, he agreed with parents that the assignment was inappropriate for 14- and 15-year-old freshmen at Brooklyn High.

The assignment asked students to research pornography on the Internet and list eight facts about pornography. Students also were asked to write their personal views of pornography and any experience they had with it.
Yeah, let's assign a bunch of 14 year olds to get on the internet and look up porn, but only to see how harmful it is. I guess common sense isn't a requirement to teach in some Ohio public schools. And typically...
Lampert said he doubted the teacher would face any punishment.
Does anyone know if Ohio has a school voucher program? I bet there are a number of Cleveland parents researching that right now.
