A North Carolina elementary school is facing backlash after parents discovered a transgender music teacher was educating students while wearing a dress, causing a bitter divide.
Middle Creek Elementary School in Apex, near Raleigh, went back to school on July 30, where students were met with a new music teacher, who is a 'transgender biological male, who dresses as a woman,' State Representative Erin Paré said in a statement.
At a school board meeting on Tuesday, many parents said they were unaware of the new hire, with many finding out via social media, after popular creators, such as Libs of TikTok, posted about the teacher.
The news bitterly divided parents over whether or not the educator should be allowed to wear clothing items, such as dresses and skirts, during school hours.
Paré is also calling for a mandatory dress code for public school teachers, which would include 'requiring gender-appropriate professional attire,' she said.
However, the Wake County School Board said implementing a new dress code would be unconstitutional and discriminatory.
'Enforcing gender-differentiated clothing requirements based on traditional gender roles constitutes impermissible sex stereotyping under the Constitution,' Board Member Chris Heagarty told parents.
'So can we all come together, respect the law, and work on how we can all come together and fund our kids’ education?'
Heagarty said the district is 'following the guidance of the United States Constitution and our US courts system,' which dictated that school dress codes 'must be gender neutral and non-discriminatory.'
Many parents and board members spoke in support of the teacher, including board member Jennifer Job, who accused parents of using the educator to propel their political agenda.
'People online and in this room are willing to sacrifice this person’s love for their job for their culture war,' she said at the meeting.

"A transgender man, who was called by Christina, argued that parents who wanted to change the dress code would want someone like them to dress as they had appeared at the meeting, in women's clothing, as they transitioned from female to male "
Corporal Klinger looked better.
Headphones = crazy
Just wrong...
There was a time when we would institutionalize weirdos like this.
Forget the dress code. Just organize, do a recall of the school board and elect decent ,rational people to the board.
It should still be that way.
Very.
Quite.
What I like about living in the SOUTH is that we don’t allow that crap. Only happens in deep blue states.
I’m too old for a biological man in a dress.
Hard to find rational people in Wake County and Apex. I live here, so I would know. I spoke with a guy just a couple weeks back who swears the REPUBLICANS brainwashed the kid who tried to kill DJT at the press dinner. Yep. Not the CIA, but REPUBLICANS. Apex is also home to the biggest Pride Parade in North Carolina. Lots of gay flags flying around here.
This situation might be the crisis when parents have to decide if they love their kids enough to remove them from public school.
The day I understand it, schools receive money based on the children attending. Fewer children, less money.
Jeeze Louise. There are no words. Get your kids out of government schools.
Insanity is contagious. That’s why they are doing this, and trying to reason with board officials is not going to work. Everyone learns at their own pace, but … do try to keep up. LOL
When, and by whom was it deemed that the trans nonsense would so permeate our culture? Why must we accept such foolishness? I’d say homeschool, but the government schools still gets the tax money that you pay. If the money followed the student, things might change. There is no valid reason to accept this crap.
Libs and homos are doing all they can to destroy the American Culture by starting to brainwash small children. Deviates are mentally ill to begin with why expose small children to their illness?
He will likely freak out when someone misgenders him and it will be the feces theater we all predict it will be. The wild card in the hand is Muslim parents. They may balk at their daughters sharing a bathroom with him.
According to this article, THIS is the teacher.
The pentagram on his shorts in the pic on the right is more of a problem.
Adult material. Just like porn. Remove it.
There was a time when you’d have to spend good money at a circus sideshow to see such a sight. They just need to bring in the giants, little people, conjoined twins, and the “living skeleton” to make it complete.
