The GCISD board narrowly passed a set of policies on topics such as pronoun usage, bathrooms and classroom discussions.

District staff should not talk about sexual orientation or gender identity until after a child has finished fifth grade, the policy stated.“I am well versed in the idea of gender dysphoria. I have a lot of it in my family. I know it’s real. I also know this topic should be handled by parents at home and not in the classroom,” one speaker said.“Every family is built differently, but they all share a common goal. I think the policies on the agenda tonight are about a common goal.

Leeman said her group of concerned parents, grandparents, and current GCISD students are currently working with the ACLU of Texas. “We’re always paying attention, first of all. But we need to get more people to pay attention,” she said. “We actually have a stake in the game, so it gives me hope with seeing so many new people who have not spoken up before come out of the woodwork.”

Nicole Lyons, Executive Director of Communications for Grapevine-Colleyville ISD, sent NBC 5 the following statement on Tuesday. “Our practice is that after the Board has approved a policy, the district will plan procedures, education, and training to guide our daily work, which includes developing administrative regulations for some of the policies to ensure consistency at every level,” said district spokeswoman Nicole Lyons in a statement to NBC 5.This article tagged under:

GCISD It’s absolutely disgraceful and not representative of what our community wants. We are begging the media to look into this from all facets - primarily who bought the election. I’m afraid for my children!

GCISD 👍
