School District: Don't Call the Children "Boys & Girls"

The opinions expressed by columnists are their own and do not necessarily represent the views of Townhall.com.

Teachers in Charlotte, North Carolina have been advised to stop calling the children “boys and girls,” according to a training presentation on transgender issues.

Instead, the progressives who control Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools want teachers to identify the youngsters as either “students” or “scholars.”

So what if a teacher has a student who is dumb as a rock? Would the child still be called a scholar?
The transgender guidelines, which will got into effect later this month, range from the absurd to downright outrageous.
For example, boys who identify as girls would be permitted to participate on overnight all-girl field trips. That’s a rule sure to be a hit among the 13-year-olds.
