Case Summary

This is a case about parental notification rules related to transgender and gender non-conforming students in schools. On April 27, 2023, two middle school teachers sued the Escondido Union School District (EUSD), the California State Board of Education, and various associated officials in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California before Judge Roger T. Benitez, challenging the school district policy AR 5145.3. The challenged policy requires teachers and staff to r…

This is a case about parental notification rules related to transgender and gender non-conforming students in schools. On April 27, 2023, two middle school teachers sued the Escondido Union School District (EUSD), the California State Board of Education, and various associated officials in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California before Judge Roger T. Benitez, challenging the school district policy AR 5145.3. The challenged policy requires teachers and staff to recognize the expressed gender of students, and to maintain confidentiality and non-disclosure requirements regarding that gender identity preference when communicating with students' parents or guardians, except when the student gives prior consent.

The plaintiffs sued under 42 USC § 1983, alleging that the school policy violated their rights under the First Amendment because it 1) constituted compelled speech and viewpoint discrimination, and 2) infringed on their right to free religious exercise. Plaintiffs alleged that the policy required them to deceive parents, which violated their free speech rights and their sincere religious beliefs. They had sought an exemption from the policy, but the school denied their request. Both plaintiffs were also placed on administrative leave—one plaintiff requested leave due to an allegedly hostile work environment, and the other was put on leave due to alleged student complaints. Plaintiffs, represented by private counsel, sought a declaratory judgment, a preliminary and permanent injunction, monetary damages, and attorneys' fees.

On September 14, 2023, Judge Benitez granted a preliminary injunction preventing the defendants from taking any adverse employment action against the plaintiffs in the event that they violate the challenged policy. The court held that, under the Free Exercise Clause, the challenged policy was not "generally applicable" and therefore must face strict scrutiny, which it did not survive because it was not narrowly tailored. In the same opinion, the court denied various motions to dismiss brought by the defendants. In doing so, the court held that the plaintiffs had standing and had sufficiently stated a claim, that the state defendants lacked sovereign immunity, and that it was too early to decide qualified immunity issues. 691 F.Supp.3d 1197.

Despite the injunction, Plaintiffs had remained on administrative leave for several months; the plaintiff who had chosen to leave argued that the defendants had not sufficiently addressed her safety concerns about returning to work. Following a hearing, on January 10, 2024, Judge Benitez granted Plaintiffs' motion for an order to show cause, requiring the EUSD to return Plaintiffs back to the classroom within six days if they chose, and to work in good faith to resolve any associated issues.

The plaintiffs filed an amended complaint on January 29, 2024, which added the Governor and Attorney General of California as defendants. Both moved to dismiss, and on May 10, 2024, the court granted both motions, holding that the alleged harm to the plaintiffs was not sufficiently traceable to their actions. 2024 WL 2789460. The plaintiffs filed another amended complaint on August 13, 2024, which added additional plaintiffs, including parents of students in the school district. In the amended complaint, the plaintiffs sought to represent a class of similarly situated teachers and parents. This amended complaint also added claims for religious discrimination and retaliation in violation of Title VII, and added 42 USC § 1983 claims brought by the parents, alleging that the challenged policy violated their Fourteenth Amendment substantive due process rights and their rights to free exercise of religion. The plaintiffs also moved to certify a class and for summary judgment on August 16, 2024. The following month, on September 24, the plaintiffs moved for a class-wide preliminary injunction.

Several defendants moved to dismiss in August and September 2024, including members of the EUSD Board of Education and the California Board of Education, the California Superintendent of Public Instruction, and the California Attorney General (who had been re-added as a defendant in the second amended complaint). The defendants argued that the plaintiffs lacked standing and failed to state a claim. On January 7, 2025, the court denied all the motions to dismiss. 761 F.Supp.3d 1317.

As of February 2025, parties were in discovery proceedings.
