Bonta investigates Chino Valley school district's parental notification policy on children's gender identity
The Chino Valley Unified School District board voted during a heated meeting in favor of a controversial policy that requires schools to notify parents if their child identifies as transgender.
The policy also requires parents to be notified within three days if their child asked for access to gender-based sports or wants to use a different bathroom or changing rooms that do not match their assigned gender at birth. "This is a ploy to try to scare all the other boards across California from adopting the policy," Sonjia Shaw said in a statement to The Associated Press. "I won't back down and will stand in the gap to protect our kids from big government bullies."
Bonta sent a letter to the district in July warning the policy could be in violation of students' rights.
