From KERA:
Inside a Thursday morning gym class at Dallas ISD’s Young Men’s Leadership Academy at Fred Florence Middle School, a group of young men are reciting the Boy Scout Oath.
This is routine at regular Boy Scout meetings. This gathering, though, is anything but. The Pleasant Grove campus is one of four middle schools in the Dallas district where Boy Scouts take over gym class once a week. And every kid in this school is a Boy Scout.
