One Clinton County school is teaching an optional lesson that will “share and explore pronouns” with students in one of its elementary schools.
DeWitt Public Schools sent home a letter to Schavey Road Elementary parents last week informing them of the upcoming teaching. It specified that students would be listening to the book “They She He Me: Free to Be!” and practice using they/them pronouns. In addition, the lesson discusses what to do if students “make a mistake with pronouns” and “learn that it’s not okay to change someone’s pronouns on purpose.”
