Supreme Court Affirms Parental Notice in School Gender-Identity Dispute

In a 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court revived a lower-court injunction allowing some California parents to be informed if their child expresses gender identity at school, signaling the court’s view that parental rights—and religious liberty considerations—can constrain school privacy policies in this narrow, case-specific context. The ruling applies to the plaintiffs seeking religious exemptions and does not overturn California’s broader policies.
