Was he offering extra credit or doing a little research?
Parents are livid that a geometry teacher at a California school district assigned his high school class a graphic assignment. The students were told if they look through their parents' rooms and took selfies with their sex toys they would receive extra credit, reports CBS Los Angeles.
Apparently one student accomplished the task.
"(The teacher) used that as an example of what it should look like for the other students," Kimberly Cobene, whose daughter is in the class at Encinal High School in Alameda, told the station.
Cobene and another mother Evangeline Garcia told the station they heard about the assignment from an after school counselor.
The students were told to look through their folks' drawers to look for sex toys, condoms or other private items the adults would be trying to keep away from their kids.
The parents complained to the district which launched an investigation. But the teacher, who was not identified in the report, remains in the classroom, they said.
A district spokeswoman did not return a call seeking comment from the Daily News and declined to speak on the matter with the station because it was a personnel issue.
"All they could tell us is that, 'Oh, this is an HR issue. It's being investigated.' They are not at liberty to tell me anything other than that," Garcia said. "It's kinda been the runaround."
But the moms said they will act to protect their children.
"We don't feel comfortable with our children in his presence," she said.
