Southern California school board rejects curriculum that would have mentioned gay rights figure Harvey Milk.

outside a Glendale Unified School District board meeting in nearby Los Angeles County as members met to approve a measure recognizing Pride Month, something it has done for years.

But several parents and teachers are pushing for a recall of three school board members who have led the crusade against state-endorsed curriculum just six months after they took office. Board member Steven Schwartz, a retired educator with more than 40 years teaching experience, said he has never seen anything like the ruckus that has overtaken meetings in recent months.

Now, those same board members have rejected supplemental materials for elementary school students that mention Milk. Gia Rueda, a Temecula resident with two high-school aged children in the school district, called the three conservative members of the school board “chaos gods” who are bringing unnecessary attention to the community.
