Oregon Dept of Education Introduces Unprecedented Progressive Guidelines for Transgender Students
The Oregon Department of Education just unveiled one of the most progressive sets of guidelines regarding transgender students in the nation, The Oregonian reports:
In a sweeping 15-page document the department issued what are likely to be controversial suggestions for Oregon educators — directing them to allow transgender females to play girls sports, for example, and transgender men to wear tuxedos to prom.
They also suggest school leaders use transgender students’ preferred names, even if that differs from a legal name, on all transcripts and diplomas. And they say the state will require no proof before changing a student’s gender in Oregon records.
“A student who says she is a girl and wishes to be regarded that way throughout the school day should be respected and treated like any other girl,” the document reads. “So too with a student who says he is a boy.”
Check out the new guidelines in the doc below:
