NJ Attorney General challenges Hanover Township schools' alleged discrimination against LGBTQ+ students.

New Jersey's Attorney General has filed a civil rights lawsuit against the Hanover Township School District over a policy that allegedly discriminates against LGBTQ+ students. The policy requires school staff to notify parents of the gender identity and sexual orientation of students, which the AG argues will have a "disparate impact" on LGBTQ+ students. The school district argues that the policy merely requires staff to notify parents of any facts or circumstances that may impact a student's physical or mental health. State Senators have voiced support for the district's policy.
