A Texas public charter school notified parents of a shocking game played in a middle school classroom months after an angry mother pulled her daughter out of the school.
She pulled her daughter out of the school just days following the September incident, but the school did not notify parents until February of the"Bear, Hunter, Hooker" game that had her up in arms.
"I apologize for not communicating sooner; after working with a concerned parent, we acknowledge that we should have shared the incident with you right away, address how we were handling this matter, and make resources available to parents for talking with their children - we promise to be more transparent in the future," she continued.

RACHEL LEVINE SAYS CHANGING KIDS' GENDERS WILL SOON BE FULLY EMBRACED: 'WHEELS WILL TURN ON THIS'"They were lined up in maturity level, so young as to oldest in one class, and then in another class they were lined up, or they were actually offered candy," she said."So and it was two separate teachers in two separate classrooms."
In a March 6 letter, KIPP Texas Public Schools Board of Directors Chair Gene Austin also issued an apology to Gruber, noting that the lengthy process may have felt"drawn out" for her and the experience her child had at the school. Gruber said she is unsure if other families have now pulled their children from the school amid the fallout.
