We wanted to send out a quick reminder about tonight's meeting with the Board of Trustees. The meeting will be held in the Clark County Commission Chambers in the Government Center located at 500 S. Grand-Central Parkway, Las Vegas, Nevada 89155 at 6:00 p.m.
Trustees will be discussing and likely voting on "whether to direct the Superintendent and staff to draft policy and regulation related to gender diverse students." This vote is enormously consequential when it comes to privacy in bathrooms and locker rooms on campus and affects every student in this district. The importance of your attendance tonight in defense of families, children, and your parental rights cannot be understated.
It has come to our attention that Planned Parenthood and other activists will be holding a rally beginning at 5:00 p.m. outside the Government Center. This movement is exposing itself for what it is; activist organizations circumventing parents in order to further their radical agenda in our schools.
Some Trustees agree with Planned Parenthood and Gender Justice. They will further their agenda by voting to move forward on writing a policy that will allow biological boys to access girls' locker rooms and bathrooms. Some Trustees feel perfectly fine about allowing a biological boy to share a hotel room with your daughter on an overnight field trip without notification. We invite you to come and see if your Trustee will vote to direct the writing of policy that will disregard valid privacy concerns and place the needs and interests of one demographic over another.
Several Trustees will be running for re-election this November. We will be watching how they vote on this matter, as their vote tonight will influence our vote in November.
You may sign up to speak until noon today by calling the Office of the Board of Trustees at (702) 799-1072. You may also sign up to speak at the beginning of the meeting. You will have one minute to speak.
We want to deliver a clear message on Thursday evening:
CCSD should not waste any more precious time and resources developing policy until Nevada Department of Education language is finalized.
Our school district does not need an expanded policy. Current Nevada law does not require CCSD to create a gender-diverse policy. Public policy that addresses only gender diverse interests is bad policy because it dismisses privacy concerns for others.
Principals need uniform guidance that will allow them to address the needs of gender diverse students while protecting privacy in restrooms and locker rooms, and respecting parental rights.
This process has been divisive creating hostility and distrust in our community. We urge the Trustees to vote NO. Call / email your Trustee www.ccsd.net/trustees and ask them to protect the privacy rights of all children.
We look forward to standing with you tonight in defense of our parental rights.
