The title Lawn Boy and it's Educational Appropriateness for School Libraries.


The title Lawn Boy by Jonathan Evison, which has made mainstream media for it’s vulgarity, is available in CFISD High School libraries. I filed a Formal Reconsideration on it, and two schools responded they were keeping the book. I was told Lawn Boy is considered "Educationally Appropriate."

Please review the following letters and book availability:




There is a reason this book made the news for being available to minor students at school libraries. Lots of profanity, drug/alcohol use and the character talking about when he was in 4th grade (I think this is 10 years old) "sucking dicks." These screenshots are not exhaustive, but I can't publish the entire book. 

Please take a look:




















Lawn Boy is not the only pornographic book available in CFISD libraries. Please see my other blogposts for more pictures and information.

Colleen Hoover's sexually explicit novels available in CFISD libraries.

  A 15 year old CFISD student told me last week that kids at his school were passing around Colleen Hoover’s books. Why? Because they are well known for being sexually explicit. Colleen warns us on Good Reads and on her author website: I looked online at CFISD libraries to see if any of these books were available. I was surprised to find 23 different titles and over 40 copies at various schools.  I ordered 3 titles to see how sexually explicit they are. Verity, It Ends with Us and Ugly Love.  Verity by Colleen Hoover Reader’s Warehouse rates Verity for 21+. (CFISD also has the title Too Late available to minors rated 21+ by Reader’s Warehouse.)   Colleen Hoovers title, It Ends With Us, is also available in CFISD libraries: Let’s take a look: Do you think Verity and It Ends With Us is appropriate for a school library where teens go to study? Would you like your teen to read this book? Please look up statistics on teens addicted to pornography.  Book 3 I ordered is Ugly Love. Again Colle

Is The Bluest Eye educationally suitable for underage students?

The Bluest Eye by Toni Morrison is another title in CFISD libraries I filed a Formal Reconsideration on.  CFISD libraries The Blue Eye is available in: The Bluest Eye, purchased with our tax money by CFISD librarians, has numerous sex scenes which makes it pornographic and unsuitable for minors.  Please look at some sample text from my personal copy: Descriptive Pedophilia:                                                           Descriptive Sex Scenes:                                                A sample of the numerous profane statements: The descriptive rape of an 11 year old by her father: These are the official CFISD Principal/Formal Reconsideration Committees responses citing The Bluest Eye is educationally suitable for minors:  I am on CFISD SHAC committee. SHAC stands for School Health Advisory Committee. It is most famous for "sex ed." I was on the High School "Sex Ed" committee this year and I am very familiar with the latest TEKS. The Bluest Eye, and

Should CFISD be promoting Gender Identity in Elementary School Libraries? PreK-5th Grade?

Image
 I went to the CFISD library system for Elementary, and typed in "Gender Identity." 25 Titles concerning Gender Identity pulled up in our CFISD Elementary schools.  Some of the books had anywhere from 14-39 copies! Examples from the title "Being You" by Madison, Ralli, Passchier Examples from the title "It Feels Good to Be Yourself" by Theresa Thorn: Are you ok with your elementary age child being taught you could have misgendered them?  Is this why you send your child to school? To be taught sexuality?  Or did you send them to school to learn academics?  Are you good with your tax money going to these library books? Examples from the title Jacob's New Dress by Sarah and Ian Hoffman: Examples from the title Jacob's Room To Choose by Sarah and Ian Hoffman: In Jacob's Room to Choose, the elementary age children are led by their teacher to decide that boys and girls can share bathrooms. Are you ok with your child sharing bathrooms with the opposit
