Maybe it’s a woke thing, they want them to take gender classes or some crap like that. I don’t know that school district or area too well

There are no "gender classes" at the high school level anywhere, that's a myth peddled by the Right to drum up fear among their base.
In terms of what they would supposedly take instead, it's probably STEM related. A lot of people on both sides of the political spectrum have been pushing STEM in schools for a long time to the detriment of the arts and humanities, because it's seen as a more directly profitable skillset. What you lose, of course, is a well-rounded education, though many people don't seem to care.

Woke? As in understanding that our society and the world is moving forward NOT backwards? Understanding that a woman should have control of her body in all things? Understanding that racism should have no place in our society? Understanding that trickle down economics is bullcrap? Understanding that there south half of this country started a war to keep slaves as their sole source of free labor? Understanding that there is more world than three US? That people should be able to love and be whomsoever THEY choose so that they can be happy? What part of woke don't you like our want to pass down to our children?
And what does it have to do with the dumbing down of our children so that the GQP has willing and uneducated masses that will continue to buy into the MAGAt rhetoric and FauxNews propaganda...
Yes... Maybe it's time to wake the fuq up...
