Stacey DeCorsey, principal at Excelsior Elementary School in Minnetonkaââ¬â¢s public school district, gave a brief video update about the upcoming year on the schoolââ¬â¢s Facebook page.
DeCorsey plugged a couple books for elementary students to read over the final 40-odd days of summer, including Erica Silvermanââ¬â¢s ââ¬ÅJack (Not Jackie).ââ¬Â
ââ¬ÅJack (Not Jackie)ââ¬Â is a picture book written for kids in kindergarten through second grade that attempts to normalize transgenderism. DeCorsey called the book a ââ¬Åphenomenal readââ¬Â and said itââ¬â¢s being added to the schoolââ¬â¢s media center.
ââ¬ÅIn this heartwarming picture book, a big sister realizes that her little sister, Jackie, doesnââ¬â¢t like dresses or fairies ââ¬â she likes ties and bugs! Will she and her family be able to accept that Jackie identifies more as ââ¬ËJackââ¬â¢ ââ¬Â the book description reads.
ââ¬ÅShe wants to play with mud and be a super bug! Jackie also doesnââ¬â¢t like dresses or her long hair, and she would rather be called Jack ââ¬Â¦ Readers will love this sweet story about change and acceptance,ââ¬Â the description adds.
ââ¬ÅJack (Not Jackie)ââ¬Â ends with the main characterââ¬â¢s older sister and book narrator, Susan, acknowledging that ââ¬ÅJackââ¬Â is her ââ¬Åbrother.ââ¬Â
DeCorsey is far from the only school official or teacher in the Twin Cities area promoting leftist gender ideology. One Minneapolis preschool teacher posted a TikTok video in May about 3-year-old students affirming the teacherââ¬â¢s ââ¬Åtrans/queerââ¬Â identity.
ââ¬ÅSo today was full of little happy gender euphoria moments,ââ¬Â the teacher said. ââ¬ÅI got called ââ¬ËMr. Micahââ¬â¢ a lot today ââ¬Â¦ and that was really heartwarming that the kids just got it.ââ¬Â
Back in February, Rep. Angie Craig read from the U.S. House floor a childrenââ¬â¢s book about a young girl who comes to identify herself as a boy.Posted by JR
