Why Is the Anoka-Hennepin School Board Doing Nothing About LGBT Suicide?

Lesbian and gay students in a Minnesota are committing suicides at an alarming rate, and the school district is doing nothing to stop it. Three gay students commited suicide this year due to bullying and feeling uncomfortable in their own skin. The school distrcit is scared to do anything because they're worried about offending some socially conservative religious leaders in the area, who want to keep any mention of homosexuality, even if it relates to anti-bullying, verboten on high school campuses. I personally think this is a horrible tragedy. Students are dying and the school is scared of offending anyone? Do you think it is the school districts job to step in and stop this?
