A California district judge dismissed a lawsuit Tuesday challenging a school district’s policy that keeps students’ gender transitions from their parents, according to a press release.
In January, Aurora Regino filed a lawsuit against the Chico Unified School District after a counselor allegedly helped her 10-year-old daughter transition genders without the mother’s knowledge. Eastern District of California Judge John Mendez dismissed the lawsuit stating that district staff are not directed to keep a student’s gender transition from their parents, according to a Wednesday press release.
“We know there are differing viewpoints as it pertains to this case,” the school district said in its press release. “Chico Unified appreciates the patience of our community as we worked through the legal process. More importantly, the resolution of this case allows Chico Unified to maintain our focus and financial resources on the education and support of the students in the Chico Unified School District.”
Regino sued the school district after she found out that her daughter had begun to secretly transition genders at school. A school counselor had been advising the 10-year-old girl that she was a boy and convinced her to use he/him pronouns and a male name at school, the lawsuit alleged.
In April, despite the lawsuit, the Chico Unified School Board voted to keep its policy in place which states that educators must keep a student’s change in pronouns or name confidential unless the child gives written permission for their gender transition to be shared.
The court order reads, “…District staff are not directed to force students to adopt transgender identities or keep their identities secret from their parents. Instead, District staff are directed to affirm a student’s expressed identity and pronouns and disclose that information only to those the student wishes, with an exception for the student’s health. On the Regulation’s face, it is undisputable that the decision to openly express a transgender identity through the use of a different name and pronouns is made by the student, not the District,” according to the press release.

Throughout the country, school districts have implemented policies that keep student’s gender transitions a secret from their parents; a parental rights group has tracked 1,000 school districts, including 17,612 schools and more than 10 million students, that have “Transgender/Gender Nonconforming Policies” in place which advise educators on how to keep a student’s transgender status hidden from parents. The tracker includes some of the largest school districts in the country including Seattle Public Schools in Washington and Los Angeles Unified School District in California.
Regino and her attorneys did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.

IMPORTANT NOTE: It's hard to believe it's really happening, but it is. Male athletes pretend to be females, dominate their sports, and are thereby rapidly destroying women’s competitive sports worldwide. Convicted male criminals suddenly claim to be transgender so they can be confined in a women’s prison and sexually abuse the female inmates there. Men claiming to be female likewise invade women’s locker rooms, bathrooms, schools, dormitories, sororities, shelters, spas and social organizations – and in the process steal women’s scholarships, advancement, honors and myriad other opportunities.
Meanwhile, transgender groomers and recruiters in schools and on social media platforms like TikTok are continually feeding and expanding the current “mass hysteria” craze that has already led countless teen girls to take testosterone and undergo double mastectomies in a pathetic effort to become boys. No wonder the CDC reports 3 in 5 teen girls say they feel “persistently sad or hopeless” and almost 1 in 3 say they have seriously considered committing suicide.
All of this on top of the radical left’s renewed obsession with killing women’s unborn babies via abortion.
The “woke” left’s maniacal attack on women and girls, virtually unreported by the rest of the media, is the entire focus of the sensational June issue of WND’s critically acclaimed WHISTLEBLOWER magazine, titled “THE LEFT’S TOTAL WAR ON WOMEN.” WHISTLEBLOWER is available in both the popular print edition and a state-of-the-art digital version, either single issues or discounted annual subscriptions.
