9. I'm wondering ...

Hibbs, a straight woman currently on medical leave from her post at Deerfield Beach High School, was investigated last year after a student's parents complained to the school principal that Hibbs had not informed them of their daughter's sexual orientation, and that the teacher possibly contributed to their daughter being gay. Hibbs has been a teacher for 10 years.

two things:

First, Does a school district have a obligation to notify a parent of any conduct that is non-school related AND where the conduct does not constitute a danger to the student or others?

Secondly, Did the school district take the opportunity to education this parent that no teacher/pastor/lover/friend or enemy can "contribute" to a person's being gay?
