The measure would require schools to notify parents if their student, under the age of 18, requests to be treated as a gender different from school records. It would also revoke the California education code that allows students to play on sports teams that align with their chosen gender identity, and it would ban gender-affirming health care for minors.
Dubbed parental notification policies, these mandates for how schools must inform parents if their child may be transgender have already been adopted by several districts in Southern California, including Temecula Valley Unified, Chino Valley Unified, Orange Unified and Placentia-Yorba Linda Unified.
