North Carolina school to teachers: Don't call students 'boys and girls'
foxnews.com
>Teachers in Charlotte, North Carolina, have been advised to stop calling the children “boys and girls,” according to a training presentation on transgender issues.
>Instead, the progressives who control Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools want teachers to identify the youngsters as either “students” or “scholars.”
>The transgender guidelines, which will go into effect this month, range from the absurd to downright outrageous.
>For example, boys who identify as girls would be permitted to participate on overnight all-girl field trips. That’s a rule sure to be a hit among the 13-year-olds.
>Another guideline indicates parents could be left out of their child’s gender decision-making.
>“Involvement of parents in the plan is determined in working with the student, considering the student’s age and health, well-being and safety concerns.”
>In other words, Jack may be a boy at home, but at school Jack becomes Jill.
>“Staff must take care not to ‘out’ a student to others, including the parents of an older student, without the student’s consent,” the presentation stated. “In contacting the parents, use the student’s name/pronoun on birth certificate unless student or parent says otherwise.”
>The school district also wanted to embrace gender-neutral bathrooms, locker rooms and showers. However, those edicts were placed on hold pending federal court rulings.
>The district utilized a “gender unicorn” cartoon character to explain issues like gender identity and gender expression. The make-believe character was also used to explain terms like questioning, queer, cis gender, non-binary, genderqueer and gender nonconforming.
