Your school may not be a democracy, but some are... and they work pretty well that way.

"Information packet" is school speak for pamphlet with a cover note.



The point is, the school is not really going "out of it's way" to help this kid. The kid is not "making them jump through hoops". All you people who think it is s big deal are clearly too far removed from the everyday running of decent elementary schools to realize that this could almost go unnoticed if silly homophobic parents didn't create a hoo-haa about it.
