A parent of three kids in a New Jersey school district is suing the system over a policy that does not notify parents when transgender students change their name or preferred pronouns.
The federal lawsuit, filed in The United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, names Cherry Hill Public Schools as a defendant, and comes from concerned father Rick Short.
He contends the guidelines, modeled after a state policy, violate his rights as a parent and is seeking to rescind the policy or add a provision that demands parental involvement.
