Newport hides gender identity

Alleged incident in Newport School District · Rhode Island

Newport Public Schools has a policy allowing staff to withhold information about a student's gender identity from their parents. The policy mandates staff use preferred pronouns and permits students to use facilities aligning with their gender identity. This approach raises significant concerns regarding parental rights and school transparency.
