Florida School District Unveils Transgender ‘Reporting’ Policy – By Madeline Leesman (Townhall) / July 29, 2022
A Florida school district is responding to the state’s highly-publicized “Parental Rights in Education Act,” dubbed by the mainstream media as the “Don’t Say Gay” law, by introducing a policy for transgender students who want to be identified by their school teachers and faculty.
According to Fort Myers-based outlet NBC2, “transgender” students at the Lee County School District will be required to fill out a “Gender Support Plan” to give to the school.
A parent, Crystal Czyscon, told NBC2 that the document asks students if they have a support system at home and for a plan if the student is “outed” for being trans. She called the document “discriminatory” an “frieghtning.”
Sharon McGill, who sat on the school district’s “equity committee,” said that the forms were created to “protect children and teachers.” She said that students who want to be acknowledged as trans by their teachers will need to fill out the forms.
