The Sept. 25 segment began with a student saying that Spectrum, the name of the school’s student-led Gay-Straight Alliance (GSA) club, was nearing the end of "Bisexual Plus Awareness Week."

"Spectrum is close to wrapping up our celebration of Bisexual Plus Awareness Week," a student said in the segment. "Do you know what the plus stands for? It signifies inclusivity of all non-monosexual identities. What does that mean, you ask? Well, I’ll tell you. A non-monosexual identity refers to sexual orientations that are not exclusively homosexual or heterosexual. The term encompasses a range of identities including bisexual, pansexual, fluid, queer and omnisexual."

"Non-monosexual identities emphasize that attraction can be complex and not limited to traditional binaries," the student added, saying that there would be more on the subject the following day.

Linn-Mar Community School District told Fox News Digital that it was aware of the segment and that it was investigating the situation.

"At this time, the district is conducting a review to determine whether any existing policies or procedures were violated during the production or airing of the segment," the district told Fox News Digital. "We remain committed to fostering respectful dialogue and supporting all students and staff in a safe and inclusive environment in a manner that aligns with district guidelines and policies."

On Jan. 29, Trump issued an order titled, "Ending Radical Indoctrination in K-12 Schooling." Additionally, in March, he issued an order directing the secretary of education to "take all necessary steps to facilitate the closure of the Department of Education and return education authority to the states." As of September 2025, the department is still up and running.

Fox News Digital reached out to the Department of Education for comment on Hinson’s allegations.
