Controversial Art in Education: Teachers and Parents Clash.

A Florida principal resigned after parents complained about Michelangelo's David statue being included in their children's lesson plans, claiming it was pornographic. The mayor of Florence, Italy, and the director of the Galleria dell’Accademia invited the principal, school board, parents, and student body to view the “purity” of the statue, stating that confusing art with pornography is "ridiculous." The David's nudity has been part of a centuries-old debate about art pushing boundaries and the rules of censorship.
