REVEALED: The Sun Belt cities where teachers don't tell parents their OWN KIDS are changing sex at school (New Mexico)

Seven major school districts in New Mexico responsible for thousands of children have policies to help them change sex identity in class without their parents finding out, DailyMail.com can reveal.

Parents Defending Education (PDE), a conservative campaign group, uncovered details of the stealth transgender policies from public records requests.

The unearthed documents show how teachers are directed to help trans students change their names, pronouns, clothing, and sex identity at school, without their parents' knowledge.

Trans activists say such guidelines are vital, as some kids need protection from old-fashioned moms and dads who won't accept their desire to change sex.

But for many parents, they are dangerous, and could deny them a chance to help their children as they struggle to navigate puberty.

PDE's outreach director Erika Sanzi slammed the schools for 'indefensible and likely illegal' policies.

'Any time a school participates in or facilitates a student's transition, they are engaging in a psychosocial intervention that requires parental notification and consent,' Sanzi said.

'Federal law guarantees parents the right to view every record maintained by the district, and that includes gender support plans.'

The schools and New Mexico's Department of Education did not answer DailyMail.com's emails.

They are Los Alamos Public Schools, Rio Rancho Public Schools, Las Cruces Public Schools, Gallup-McKinley County Schools, Moriarty-Edgewood School District, Santa Fe Public Schools, and Gadsden Independent School District.

New Mexico takes a relatively progressive approach to trans youth.

LGBTQ youth are protected from discrimination and bullying, according to the Movement Advancement Project. Democratic Gov. Michelle Grisham last year signed a law to protect sex-change procedures in the state.

Santa Fe Public Schools, which covers some 28 institutions, has perhaps the starkest secret trans policy of the New Mexico schools.

The district's document urges teachers to 'MAINTAIN CONFIDENTIALITY — THIS IS CRITICAL.'

Santa Fe Public Schools, which covers some 28 institutions, has perhaps the starkest secret trans policy of the New Mexico schools.
The district's document urges teachers to 'MAINTAIN CONFIDENTIALITY — THIS IS CRITICAL.'

More on Santa Fe's policy:

'Do NOT share the student's transgender status with anyone else,' says the internal guide.
'This is HIGHLY confidential information.'
Parents do not need to be informed about a trans child unless a 'student wishes to change their name and/or gender marker' in the school's database, the policy states.

"The school", "The district", NO! There are people who are responsible for this crap and they need to be found and named and then let nature take its course.

Because it is impossible to do so. It's that simple.

Well, Santa Fe is basically a suburb of Beverly Hills with a lot of Manhattan financial wizards thrown in. And then there’s the old Berkeley communist crowd who moved thither with the Manhattan Project. That they weren’t agents of Stalin was only half the issue. They were wealthy American left coasters who thought communism was chic.
