"But by May, after nurse practitioner Kim Daly had administered some 150 pregnancy tests at Gloucester High's student clinic, she and the clinic's medical director, Dr. Brian Orr, a local pediatrician, began to advocate prescribing contraceptives regardless of parental consent"As a parent I'd want to know why the HELL the school didn't tell me my kid was in getting a pregnancy test!!!!! Maybe - just maybe - if you had given the parents a head's up you would have a lot fewer pregnancies right now, did you EVER think of that???
Chances are greater that all these girls wanted was for their PARENTS TO PAY ATTENTION to what was going on -- and the school system FAILED in that respect.
Teachers, Administration, and the like have GOT TO let the parents know what's going on! I know that many teachers worry about what will happen to the kids if they let parent's know - abuse, etc - but you know what? Once those kids walk out our door, we have no idea what goes on unless they tell us.
These two, and the principal if he knew (and I would think he did), should all be shit-canned for not jumping on this.
