Controversy over Michelangelo's 'David' leads to Florida principal's resignation.
A charter school principal in Tallahassee, Florida, resigned after failing to follow procedure before a lesson on Michelangelo's statue of David was given to sixth graders. The school board chair stated that the problem was not the lesson itself, but the failure to notify parents of the upcoming lesson, as required by Florida's Parental Rights in Education law. The school promotes parental rights and will ensure that parents are informed of what their children will be taught. The former principal stated that things had been escalating over the past year and that she did not always follow every policy and procedure.
