FIRST ON FOX: One of the largest school districts in the country is facing allegations that it lets teachers decide if parents are sufficiently "supportive" enough to tell them about their child's desire to switch genders.
Trump-aligned America First Legal (AFL) filed a formal complaint against Montgomery County Public Schools, which is in the suburbs of Washington, D.C., with the Departments of Justice and Education, alleging it has been violating the constitution and other federal law through its "Gender Identity in Montgomery County Public Schools" handbook. AFL goes on to allege the school district repeatedly instructs staff to condition parental involvement on whether a parent is deemed "supportive" enough.
Under a section of the plan titled "Communication with Families," the handbook instructs that faculty should talk with a student to "ascertain the level of support" they receive at home to help make decisions on whether to share with parents that their child requested to change their pronouns, be called by a different name, or even sleep with the opposite biological sex during overnight field trips.
Part of the "system" AFL also describes in its complaint guidance from the handbook that instructs educators to leave such gender-related information out of documents federal law allows parents access to.
The watchdog claims Montgomery County Public Schools is violating the Free Exercise, Free Speech and Due Process Clauses in the Constitution, as well as the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), with their policies that keep parents in the dark. The district did not immediately comment on the complaint, citing policy not to comment on pending litigation.
The non-grade specific, 14-page "Gender Identity" handbook, aimed at ensuring "a culture of respect and equity," sets forth policies for any student wishing to identify as "transgender" or "gender nonconforming."

This is sickening and has that communist mindset of the state is the authority over your children, not the parent.
“This is sickening and has that communist mindset of the state is the authority over your children, not the parent.”
It never ceases to amaze me that SOME PARENTS actually think they have some control over what goes on after they dump their kids in a government school.
You can’t change your sex (not “gender”).
Your sex is determined at the moment of conception.
You can mutilate your body but you can’t change your sex.
Yet another reason to home school.
The label it as a “Top District” - but I bet their students are dumber than rocks - by design....
This wealthy county is where a large population of Democrat DC gubmit employees and contractors live.
