DEI Thinks These Are The Days To Recognize

This was started last year and has not improved from the original list of days. Is this all the DEI does?

at the DEI Task Force meeting Monday night, members unveiled a pared-down draft of the calendar, which omitted what are likely the two most internationally celebrated cultural events of the year — Christmas and Easter. While none of the four task force members mentioned the two Christian events during the  meeting, Doneux said the panel is “certainly open to other people’s suggestions for additions” to the calendar.

The DEI task force, which meets once a month, voted
Monday to continue discussion of the cultural calendar to
a “date uncertain.”

P.G. Schools Hand Over Sex Ed To Baby Killers

Should be from the county health department or developed by the school district, not pass the buck to a divisive organization.

Next up, drugs and alcohol in health class with lessons from Bev-Mo.

Sex-Ed

 

Resident Mike Gibbs — who reviewed parts of the sex
ed curricula at the district office — said he was surprised to find that the course contained internet links to Planned Parenthood pages on sex toys with photos and descriptions on how to use them, and a “How do you know how to orgasm?” tutorial, which contained a video.

Following the complaints that have occurred over the past  month, a Planned Parenthood Mar Monte official sent a terse message to PGUSD saying it’s not allowed to let the public see the course.

Buzzkill. Free Narcan In P.G For O.D.s

If I drink too much where can a get a free liver transplant?

Superintendent Linda Adamson said that Pacific Grove Unified School District has about 900 doses Of Narcan, a nasal spray, at its schools, and has a standing order with the State Department Of Public Health for future orders.
“Parents can pick up Narcan at their student’s school site or at the Adult Education School,” Adamson told The Pine Cone.

Chief Cathy Madalone, 55, told The Pine Cone last October that she was given a special accommodation, in lieu of a full leave of absence, to work from home based on “physician recommendations and city policy.” Madalone has declined to say how or when she was injured and started working from home but has called the arrangement “temporary.” This week, though, Pacific Grove’s new city manager, Matt Mogensen, told The Pine Cone Madalone is not working.

Ump was even on Megan’s List, the easiest, free background check there is.

The President of Pacific Grove Pony Baseball and Softball announced that recently, a registered sex offender umpired at least three games for them.

“Unfortunately, our umpire contractor, Peninsula Sports Incorporated (PSI), employed an umpire that was a registered sex offender listed on California’s Meghan’s Law website,” said Paul Black, President of Pacific Grove Pony Baseball and Softball, in an email to families.
