(CBN) – A principal at a Florida high school has been reassigned to a different position in his school district after he made controversial statements about the Holocaust. It all began when a parent at Spanish River High School in Boca Rotan, Florida emailed Principal William Latson to ask him how the school is working to make sure all students are educated about the horrors of the Holocaust. She did not expect the email he received back.
Latson explained that the school offered a “variety of activities for students and parents each year” pertaining to the Holocaust, but they are optional. “The curriculum is to be introduced but not forced upon individuals as we all have the same rights but not all the same beliefs,” Latson replied in an email obtained by the Palm Beach Post. The parent, who has chosen to remain anonymous, asked Latson to clarify his previous email and said, “The Holocaust is a factual, historical event…It is not a right or a belief.” READ MORE
