Pastor Asks School Board Not To Use Planned Parenthood Sex Education Program

  • Thursday, June 17, 2021

Calvary Chapel pastor Frank Ramseur on Thursday afternoon asked the County School Board not to use the Planned Parenthood sex education program.

Noting that Planned Parenthood was attempting to make a "re-emergence" in Chattanooga, he said the local schools should continue to use state programs that focus on abstinence instead.

Ann Roth, who was with him, said Planned Parenthood had hired a life educator in Chattanooga. 

She said under current programs that teen pregnancies and teen birth rates had fallen sharply.

Board members made no comment.
