It feels like the discussion of women having the right to vote and blacks sitting anywhere they please on a bus is happening again. I am sure people in the future will look back and wonder why it was an issue to begin with. Moral values should be about accepting people for how they were born rather than trying to modify them into who you want them to be.

Sure I get that parents want to know about their kids but it isn't up to a teacher to tell them. I am fairly certain teachers aren't required to tell parents about yearbook committees, book clubs or any other clubs for that matter. If self harm or the child's safety is an issue than absolutely parents should be involved and notified. The teachers have more to worry about than what kids belong to what clubs.
