The principle was supposed to send a letter to the parents which didn't happen. I believe the law in florida is about notify parents so, there might be some potential legal problems for the school.
I wish democrats would engage in this issue. I believe parents do have rights regarding what types of things they're children are exposed to and/or not exposed to based on age. (don't get me started on the hap hazard parental controls for the internet)
Even just knowing what was cover so you can help your kid with their homework. usually, I can figure stuff out if I have access to it, but once sentence usually isn't enough.
But teacher and admin time isn't free. People with high political media engagement have lost their damn minds and are now offended about everything. Including thousand year old statues, apparently.
No one gives a shit if your pull your kid out of a class, but everyone -- including LOTS of clued-in conservatives -- are sick of teachers/admins/boards spending too much time holding the hands of parents who spend too much time reading political news and not enough time working on their emotional regulation skills.
If you want to control what your kid sees, YOU need to do more work. If you want more information, YOU need to review your kid's materials. If you want access to more than every other parent is provided, then YOU need to do the work of getting that material and deciding what your kid will see. It's called parenting.
If you want to curate your kid's educational experience, then put in the fucking work and stop demanding use of my tax dollars and my kid's instructional time to satiate your neuroses.
(Also: your innocent little middle school angel is definitely talking about boobies and balls recess.... because, y'know, they're middle schoolers and that is what middle schoolers do. But we'll pretend they don't as long as you stop stealing time and money from us.)

You can buy all sorts of software, but no amount of law or regulation is going to solve the problem of the internet being the internet.
It's a private school, and their charter points more specifically at "Christian Private School", so you're not going to find a lot of left-leaning voters who will legitimately have any say in what the school does.
Isn't this a charter school? Charters are public. Of course it does sound like it has what some people would describe as a thinly-veiled Christian agenda, but as I understand it, a charter is under the jurisdiction of the school board, which is elected.
I think GP here was saying was more that in general, if the left is fighting against issues that are purely about notification, it's likely a losing battle and they should probably accept/embrace 'parental notification' which has its upsides, and move on to more productive battles.
