Superintendent Jeff Lampert said that although the teacher's apparent goal _ to discuss the harmful effects of *advertiser censored* _ was well-intentioned, he agreed with parents that the assignment was inappropriate for 14- and 15-year-old freshmen at Brooklyn High.
The assignment asked students to research *advertiser censored* on the Internet and list eight facts about *advertiser censored*. Students also were asked to write their personal views of *advertiser censored* and any experience they had with it.SNIP
