I am saying nothing of the sort. But I would assume that a person sending their child to an Episcopal or Catholic high school would understand that their child would be exposed to at least some literature which includes these themes. Heck, the Song of Songs includes these themes. I also think, however, that it's the parent's perogative to pull the money and/or their kid if she/he is not comfortable with what the school is teaching.
I haven't read the book in question. Nor have I attended the class at the school in which the book was discussed, so I don't know if the book is porn or not, or if the teacher was encouraging the students to engage in conduct Not Consistent with Episcopal Church doctrine. I'll assume (though it is a rebutable assumption) that (a) it is Not Porn, and (b) the teacher was Not NAMBLA recruiting.

And even assuming a and b (which I assume to be correct too) and the rest of your post, I still think a reasonable person could make certain reasonable assumptions about a heightened level of morality in the curricula of a school that asserts the impartation of "christian values" in its mission statement.
