The Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division is suing a Maryland public school system, accusing it of secretly “gender transitioning” children without parental knowledge or consent.

Anne Arundel County Public Schools’ policies allegedly deny parental rights by instructing school staff to abide by the student’s self-identified name, pronouns, and gender identity without notifying their parents, according to the DOJ. The lawsuit breaks down one family’s experience with their daughter’s name being changed and a staff member’s attempt to cover it up.
