The policy permits schools to develop support plans for transgender students and bars staff members from informing parents about the plans without students' consent.
A federal appeals court on Monday ruled that a group of parents could not challenge a Maryland school district’s policy against telling parents if their children identify as transgender or gender-nonconforming.three parents in Montgomery County, Maryland, lacked standing to challenge the policy because they had not alleged their children were transgender in the first place.
But U.S. Circuit Judge A. Marvin Quattlebaum said the parents lacked standing to pursue their “compelling arguments” because they had not alleged their children had gender support plans or were transgender. That rendered their opposition a mere “policy disagreement,” he said. Frederick Claybrook, a lawyer for the parents, said they were considering their next steps. “Parents do not have to wait until they find out that damage has been done in secret before they may complain,” he said.
