Court Blocks Chino Valley Schools' Discriminatory Transgender Policy

A judge in San Bernardino has issued a temporary restraining order halting the enforcement of a policy by the Chino Valley Unified School District in California that required schools to inform parents if a student identifies as transgender or gender-nonconforming. The ruling comes amidst a larger legal battle between conservative-leaning school districts and state leaders over LGBTQ+ issues. The controversial policy prompted a civil rights investigation and lawsuit by the state attorney general. The judge's decision will be further discussed in a hearing scheduled for October 13.

California Takes Legal Action Against Chino Valley School Board's Transgender Notification Policy

The state of California is suing the Chino Valley Unified School District (CVUSD) over its "forced outing policy," which requires parental notification if a student requests to use a different name, pronoun, facilities, or programs that don't align with their sex on official records. The policy, approved by the CVUSD board, has faced mixed responses. Attorney General Rob Bonta argues that the policy violates the rights and endangers the well-being of non-conforming students, while supporters claim it protects parental rights.

California AG Rob Bonta Launches Investigation into Chino Valley School District's Gender Identity Policy

California's attorney general, Rob Bonta, is investigating whether the Chino Valley Unified School District's policy, which requires teachers to notify parents if their child identifies as transgender or wants to use a different name or pronoun, violates students' civil rights. Bonta argues that the policy could lead to increased bullying and harm to LGBTQ+ students. The school district board president believes state officials are overstepping their boundaries and claims that the investigation is an attempt to discourage other boards from adopting similar policies. The policy mirrors failed legislation and comes amid a nationwide debate on transgender rights and parental notification.

"California School Superintendent Faces Verbal Attack and Removal at Board Meeting"

California State Superintendent of Schools, Tony Thurmond, was asked to leave a Chino Valley Unified School District meeting in Southern California after exceeding his allotted speaking time while expressing opposition to a policy requiring administrators to inform parents if their child identifies as transgender. Despite Thurmond's objections, the board ultimately approved the policy, which mandates parental notification for transgender students. Thurmond criticized the policy for violating students' privacy rights. School Board President Sonja Shaw accused Thurmond of being a danger to students and promoting division. State Attorney General Rob Bonta warned that the policy potentially infringes on students' privacy rights and educational opportunities. In a separate incident, Governor Gavin Newsom fined the Temecula Valley Unified School District $1.5 million for rejecting state-endorsed textbooks mentioning gay rights activist Harvey Milk.
