A school board member who reported the teacher said, 'as a leader in this community, I'm not going to stand by and allow this minority to infiltrate our schools ... God did put me here.'
By Melissa Alonso, CNN A fifth-grade teacher said she is being investigated by the Florida Department of Education after she showed her students"Strange World," a 2022 animated Disney movie featuring a character who is biracial and gay.
The parent who reported her, who is also a member of the Hernando County School District Board, complained to the principal about the movie not being appropriate for students, according to Karen Jordan, spokesperson for Hernando County Schools. Jordan also provided CNN with a copy of the announcement from the school district to parents.
Disney was among those who spoke out against the law last year, spurring DeSantis and Florida Republicans to retaliate against the entertainment company by targeting their control over the land in and around its theme parks. "A school board member, an elected official of power, who was supposed to be nonpartisan, is allowed to present to the public that she is Christian and that God appointed her to the board. And yet it is indoctrinated that I showed a Disney movie. I'm a first-year teacher," said Barbee.
