Gender exists on a spectrum and there are far more than two genders, the curriculum taught to middle schoolers in Chelmsford says.
The Advocacy Unit of the sixth-grade health curriculum at Chelmsford Public Schools uses the genderbread person in its curriculum to teach this claim as fact, as opposed to the common understanding that there are two sexes: male and female, with typical gender expressions of each sex. Sixth-graders are generally 11 or 12 years old.
