Parents in Las Vegas are outraged after a teacher assigned their teenage daughter an allegedly “pornographic” monologue to memorize and recite. Candra and Terrell Evans have filed a lawsuit against the Clark County School District, claiming that their 15-year-old daughter was given an explicit, obscene and sexually violent assignment. The parents allege that district educators took part in the unlawful grooming of minors involving pornographic material.
The appalling incident has sparked debate among lawmakers, education experts, and concerned parents nationwide about what kind of content is appropriate for students to learn in school. In this article, we will discuss the implications of this case and how it could shape educational practices going forward. We will also explore the conservative perspective on this issue and why some may feel that such assignments should be avoided altogether.
According to reports from local media outlets, Candra and Terrell Evans’s daughter was assigned a shocking monologue by her teacher which included lines such as: “I don’t love you…It’s just that I don’t like dick or any dick in that case. I’m a fucking lesbian…and I’m tired of pretending that it is.” The couple claims school officials defended the content before blaming their daughter for reading it aloud. Now they’re demanding justice for what they describe as inappropriate abuse towards young people within CCSD schools.

This case has sent shockwaves through the educational community due to its shocking nature and because it raises many questions about what types of materials teachers can assign to students without crossing ethical boundaries.
It also raises concerns about how educators should handle sensitive topics related to sex and gender identity in classrooms with younger children who may not be mature enough to understand them properly yet. As such, this case could have major implications for how teachers approach these topics going forward if similar incidents occur again in other districts around the country or even internationally.
Following the May school board meeting, the school district announced it was investigating the incident, but it is unclear if the investigation concluded, according to Fox 5.
“The Clark County School District is investigating the circumstances surrounding a class assignment consisting of a student-generated writing exercise that produced content not conducive to student instruction,” the school said in a statement to Fox 5. “The District does not comment on individual employee or personnel issues, and all policies and procedures are being followed.”
