A school in New York City that charges $57,000 a year has published a guide sent to students and parents that encourages them to alter their language to conform to gender identity ideology, including pushing students to stop referring to their parents as “mom” and “dad.”
Grace Church School published a 12-page memo that instructs people to stop using certain terms that it considers to be outdated and to replace those terms with “inclusive” terminology.
The memo states the following:
Instead of saying, “boys and girls,” “guys,” “ladies,” and “gentleman,” say, “people,” “folks,” “friends,” “readers,” “mathematicians…”

Amazing how leftists think they are so much smarter than the generations of people who preceded them, and the collective wisdom of traditions and conventions that have evolved over centuries. I guess all those ancestors just didn't have the benefit of taking a gender studies class. As Thomas Sowell has said, “Social Engineering – The art of replacing what works with what sounds good.” Except that what this school is doing doesn't even sound good.

The parents should save their money and send their kids to schools that are in tune with the real world.

For $57000 a year, why not hire a tutor, at least the parents would have more say so on what's being taught.

Grace calls itself an Episcopal School, so none of this progressivism should surprise. Here is an interesting review from one alum:
The school definitely still has a lot to figure out about itself. Grace suffers from major class divisions, and socioeconomic issues are hardly discussed. At Grace, the wealthier kids flaunt their wealth in order to accumulate social cred. Funding itself from the administration is not dispersed evenly, with certain sport teams and the drama department receiving disproportionately large amounts of funding, leaving those interested in less profitable activities, such as the visual arts, for example, totally lacking. The school also suffers from serious bullying issues which are not handled well by faculty or staff members. I experienced very extreme bullying which was not addressed by any authority figure despite any complaints. These kids loved to spread rumours, and a culture of kindness or integrity does not reside here. However, I had several amazing teachers who cared very much for my learning, and I did make some great friends. Would I send my own kid here? Definitely not.

Private school...that's what customers apparently want and support. None of my business. School choice, and all that.

I’d be pulling my child from that school so fast and getting a refund.
And seeing what I could do to have their accreditation dropped.

Scroom.
Keeping your children out of government schools should be a parent's highest and most important duty.

There's a science fiction story called The Screwfly Solution, the title refers to killing off the population of screwflies by the release of large amounts of sterilized males that would compete with fertile males, thus reducing the native population. This story concerns a similar distortion of human sexuality with disastrous results.
The story tells how men for some strange reason turn on women killing them whenever they see one. I won't spoil the ending but will say it involves 'real estate developers'.
The more I see and read about the craziness that is going on not only in the U.S. but around the world I'm beginning to think there is an organized reason for this madness. The more we sink to depravity the easier it will be to do away with all us normals.

Straight out of "Brave New World" where "mother," "father," and "parents" were dirty words.

I’m surprised that their wokeness hasn’t forced them to remove the word “Church” from the name of their school.

If my kid came home and told me this we would be finding a new school the next day.
