- Education Department opens parental rights case against Ann Arbor schools over transgender policy
The U.S. Department of Education has opened a case against Ann Arbor Public Schools, alleging FERPA violations due to policies requiring staff to conceal transgender students' status from parents and maintain separate records for gender identity. The department has given the district until August 10 to respond and justify its policies to avoid potential enforcement actions, including loss of federal funding.
