| Ontario sex ed curriculum protested by hundreds at Northwood school |
The parents on site are primarily from the Muslim faith, and have taken their children out of school for the week.
They aren't alone, parents who have kids in the Windsor-Essex Catholic School Board also pulled their kids out of school this week.
Parents say that the sex ed curriculum that is set to be introduced in the fall is not appropriate, not age-appropriate and does not conform with their religious views.

The parents at Northwood school say they plan to protest at the Greater Essex District School Board offices Wednesday. (more...)
