The complaint argues that the policy violates state law because it discriminates based on sexual orientation or gender identity or expression.
Residents attend the Colts Neck school board meeting to discuss a new policy that would require school staff to inform parents when their children change their names and gender identities. Colts Neck, N.J. Feb. 22, 2023.The New Jersey Attorney General filed a civil rights complaint Wednesday against the Hanover Township Board of Education and public schools, challenging a policy passed Tuesday requiring school staff to notify parents of their children’s gender identity and sexual orientation.
“We will always stand up for the LGBTQ+ community here in New Jersey and look forward to presenting our arguments in court in this matter,” Platkin said. “We are extremely proud of the contributions LGBTQ+ students make to our classrooms and our communities, and we remain committed to protecting them from discrimination in our schools.”
According to the Attorney General’s office, the new policy calls for all school staff to “immediately, fully and accurately inform a student’s parent whenever such staff member is made aware of, directly or indirectly, any facts or circumstances that may have a material impact on the student’s physical and/or mental health, safety and/or social/emotional well-being,” including, among other things, a student’s “sexuality,” “sexual orientation,” “transitioning,” and “gender identity or expression.
“It is crucial that all educational institutions, including the Hanover School District, uphold and enforce these legal protections without exception,” he said. “To the LGBTQ+ students, especially transgender students and their families affected by this policy, we want to assure you that you are not alone. We will fight tirelessly to protect your rights and create an environment where you are celebrated, affirmed, and respected for who you are.
