"Lizzie Leander"

7th Grade English teacher requires Lizzie and her classmates to create two social media accounts. The teacher encourages them to set up one of the two on Tinder, which is an adult dating app. All of this is done without parental permission. Leander ISD administration claims it was not a "real" assignment, just a "make believe" activity. District refuses to turn over lesson plans one week in advance so that the parent can approve lessons or choose to exempt Lizzie from a particular lesson, as the law permits. Leander ISD claims they don't do lesson plans, and therefore can't release any.
