The Nampa School Board passed policy 2050 after reading it a second time.
The policy affects all grade levels and prohibits gender identity, sexual orientation, transgender identity and gender expression to be discussed or taught in Nampa schools.
The Idaho Press reports, the Nampa schools’ policy explains that the school board recognizes the “rights of parents to discuss and educate their child on every subject matter, especially the non-academic subject matters not addressed in the District.”
The policy has similarities to the controversial Florida bill known to critics as the “Don’t Say Gay” law.
Florida Gov. and Republican presidential nominee hopeful Ron DeSantis’ bill banned classroom instruction about sexual orientation and gender identity in all grades.
