One mother of students in the Berkeley Heights school district called the standards"harmful and offensive," adding it was difficult to find on her school’s website exactly what her children would be learning. "I had to send quite a few emails and figure out who is in charge and teaching what to get to this point," she said, adding that it is"a lot of work for most parents."
"In addition, all parents are welcome to personally review the curriculum guides and teaching materials," she added. Dr. Varley also noted that, regardless of the district’s own beliefs about the standards, New Jersey state law requires they be taught."If we do not, we do not pass New Jersey Quality Single Accountability Continuum monitoring.
