Elementary school takes field trip to gay bar

Florida school board member takes elementary school students on field trip to gay bar: 'SO honored'

It all stems from the fact that this restaurant bar and grill, Rosie's is located in a predominantly gay community. On Friday, there was heavy police presence outside Wilton Manors Elementary and a strong show of support from parents. A school board member posted pictures she got, criticizing phone calls like one from a man in California.

While you wouldn't take them to the museum. You are a child abuser by taking kids to some bar gay bar, you need to resign. You're not a teacher at all. Dan Hill was having lunch but not the waitstaff didn't mentioned to me how cute it was that the kids were learning how to say, please and thank you.

The school board member said most of the criticism came from calls from out of the area and when CBS 4 News checked with the Broward school district, we were told about 20 emails came in and only three were from Broward parents. The Department of Education came in to check on the matter and they haven't released any results of their findings.
