A new California bill would require schools to notify parents if a student is identifying as a gender that doesn’t align with official records.
A new bill would force California school districts to notify parents that their child is gender-nonconforming or transgender, sparking backlash from LGBTQ activists and organizations., would require school districts to notify parents in writing within three days after learning a student is identifying as a gender that doesn’t align with official records or their birth certificate.
Jessica Tapia, a former teacher at Jurupa Valley High School, said she was fired after refusing to follow the law that bars educators from disclosing students’ gender identities to their parents without their consent.“I said, ‘Are you asking me to lie?’ And they said, ‘Yes. It’s the law and it’s for the student’s privacy,’” Tapia said during the news conference. “I can’t understand how the school system seems to think that we ought to act as though we are the parent.
The Center for American Liberty filed a lawsuit in January against the superintendent and school board for Chico Unified School District on behalf of a parent, who said the school transitioned her child “behind her mother’s back.”In California schools, teachers do and must say the word “gay” as well as lesbian and transgender in lessons about nonconforming expressions of gender.
“Teachers should not be forced into the inappropriate position of revealing a student’s personal information about their gender identity with anyone,” the statement conveyed.
