Grade 1 and 2 students at Mission香蕉视频直播檚 Albert McMahon elementary school won香蕉视频直播檛 be bringing home any Mother香蕉视频直播檚 or Father香蕉视频直播檚 Day art this year.

A note issued to parents by the school says the primary team has met to discuss 香蕉视频直播渃ore values.香蕉视频直播�

香蕉视频直播淚n an effort to celebrate diversity, inclusivity and also nurture our students who are part of non-traditional families, we have decided to encourage those celebrations to take place at home,香蕉视频直播� the note reads.

It goes on to say students will not be making gifts at school to give on those two days.

Some with the decision posted the note on Facebook and called both the school and school board.

Angus Wilson, superintendent of schools, said he first heard about the note on Wednesday morning.

香蕉视频直播淭his is not a school-district or board-of-education-endorsed initiative,香蕉视频直播� he told the Mission Record.

Wilson said it was the decision of a small group of teachers at Albert McMahon.

香蕉视频直播淔rom a technical standpoint I have to mention that Mother香蕉视频直播檚 Day, as with other holidays, is not actually an official part of the curriculum or any requirement. So teachers deciding to not make observations or activities based around it are not violating any rule or breaking any law,香蕉视频直播� said Wilson, who added teachers have the autonomy to make decisions about their class.

Wilson also said he thinks many people would like to have had some kind of conversation about this.

香蕉视频直播淚 think people are upset. They sort of wonder if this is really the best direction to go when you are trying to address diversity.香蕉视频直播�

Comments on social media are mixed as some understand and support the decision while others call it ridiculous.
