Also why turn down 850k that requires no additional state funds for sex ed? Yet he chose to pick a program that fits his personal beliefs, limits education, and costs the state money. When I was a kid we had sex ed in the 5th grade. Abstinence was pushed very hard in the class before the discussion of safe sex occurred.
