A school district in Chino Valley, California, adopted a policy requiring parents to be notified if their child expresses a gender identity that differs from his or her biological sex.
The policy also requires parents to be notified if a child wants to use a bathroom that does not correspond to his or her biological sex.
President of the school board Sonja Shaw said before the policy vote, “As a parent, we were shut down. We tried to have conversations, they pushed us out to politicians. I’m a soccer mom, I’m a fitness trainer, I had no desire to ever be in this seat.”
“When they come to intimidate, they send blackmail letters, let it be not for Chino, for California to know that you have waged a war against parents, you have waged a war against parental rights, and you’re putting our children at risk, and we won’t stand for it. Because guess what? We are united,” Shaw asserted.
“We’re going to safeguard parental rights,” Shaw said, according to KTLA 5.
“That is a constitutional right and we’re going to make sure that our parents at Chino Valley know they’re sending their kids here to be taught, not to be anything else.”

Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom fined the Temecula County school district $1.5 million Thursday for rejecting a school curriculum his education department proposed. The social studies book contained writings from gay activist Harvey Milk. Opponents say they are worried about an alleged relationship between Milk and a teenager.
