<\/strong>Recently\u00a0Tempe (AZ)\u00a0Elementary Schools offered Human Growth and Development at various schools.\u00a0 The Tempe Elementary District teaches students in kindergarten-8th grade, and this district feeds into the Tempe Union High School District.<\/p>\n

Upon visiting Tempe Elementary’s website, it states they use curriculum “which adheres to the Arizona Department of Education guidelines for human growth and development education.”\u00a0 That sounds official, but vague, so we checked the Arizona Department of Education website to see what guidelines they have given districts in the state.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, Arizona’s sex ed standards are based on national and state standards.\u00a0 We know the national standards, SIECUS<\/a>, are not age-appropriate and push a promiscuous, pro-abortion mindset.\u00a0 Where the rubber hits the road in Arizona it becomes even scarier.\u00a0 The Arizona Department of Education (ADE) lists 199 approved<\/a> sex ed curriculums.\u00a0 199,\u00a0sex ed is quite a business! \u00a0Who believes the committee who approved these really researched each one thoroughly?<\/p>\n

Glancing quickly down ADE’s list, a few jumped off the page.\u00a0 Of course, Planned Parenthood’s FLASH<\/a> is listed.\u00a0 ETR<\/a>\u00a0also\u00a0has several entries.\u00a0 One of the most concerning curriculums listed is “It’s Perfectly Normal.”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Note the warning on the cover of the book–those in Minnesota are warned the book violates obscenity laws.\u00a0 But the book is allowed in Arizona?\u00a0 Governor Doug Ducey and Superintendent Diane Douglas were elected in 2014 in a Republican sweep of statewide offices.\u00a0 Parents may be very surprised to learn what else is lurking on the ADE website–we could write a book on the dangers.\u00a0 Arizona has plenty of laws to protect children and families in public schools, but the ADE website appears to ignore those statutes.<\/p>\n

The Arizona Department of Education website contains numerous entries that send the reader to promiscuous and pro-abortion links.\u00a0 In fact, one entry secretly leads the reader to Planned Parenthood in Tempe.<\/p>\n

In the list of national resources, one of the references is to stayteen.org<\/a>,<\/a> which\u00a0we are led to believe is\u00a0a website to discourage teen pregnancy.\u00a0 When visiting StayTeen, the reader will see options at the top of the page.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Since Tempe Elementary’s zip code is 85282, we searched for health centers in that area.\u00a0 Look at the second option listed:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The address 1250 E. Apache is the same address as the Tempe Planned Parenthood, the same Planned Parenthood that serves the Tempe Union High School <\/a>District, just blocks from Arizona State University.\u00a0 It seems no matter how hard parents try to keep their kids away from Planned Parenthood, the government circumvents them and places the abortion mill in the kids’ laps.\u00a0 And the state of Arizona calls this facility a “Health” Center?<\/p>\n

As of this writing,\u00a0when the ADE link to the 1250 E. Apache address is clicked, no page loads.\u00a0 However, if that address is searched on the internet, here is what is displayed:<\/p>\n

\"\"It appears to be way\u00a0past\u00a0time Governor Ducey, SPI Diane Douglas, and parents scour the ADE’s website and bring it in line with Arizona law.<\/p>\n

**Update 3-27-17<\/span><\/p>\n

We visited the Arizona Department of Education website and searched for StayTeen.org.\u00a0 The link no longer exists.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This is great news, one small step for children.\u00a0 When visiting the\u00a0Sex Education Standards on the ADE website, there\u00a0are still many links to comb through that are not in line with Arizona law nor appropriate for children.\u00a0 Hopefully somebody at the department has been tasked to turn this site into a G-rated website for families to browse.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
