But one parent complained the material was pornographic and two others said they wanted to know about the class before it was taught. The 5.17m (17ft) statue depicts an entirely naked David, the Biblical figure who kills the giant Goliath.

OMG! 11 and 12 year olds saw a naked man! They could be traumatized for the rest of their lives! [/sarcasm]

Good heavens, some Americans are so uptight about the human body I don't know how they manage to reproduce.
