District promotes anti-racism books

Inappropriate TeachingGender IdentityHighAdded 2d ago
School hides gender from parents
Alleged incident in West Warwick School District · Rhode Island
West Warwick Public Schools maintains a policy allowing staff to withhold information about a student's gender identity from their parents. The policy states that parental notification is unnecessary if parents are already aware and supportive, or if school mental health providers determine notification carries risks for the student. It also permits students to use facilities and participate in sports according to their preferred gender identity without parental consent if safety cannot be guaranteed.
