A Message from the Board of Education

Dear Parents/Guardians, Faculty/Staff and Community Members:

Unfortunately, some parents and members of our community have been promoting an out-of-date and harmful narrative that our transgender students are a danger to other students, both on social media and at the Board of Education meeting on August 3, 2022,

At the meeting, the Board took actions to ensure that our District policies and practices offer protections to the civil rights and safety for all students and staff that align with Federal and State law.

The Board of Education and the District remain committed to a focus on students, and providing the best possible learning environment for all our students and the best possible working environment for all our staff.

Jason Fernau 

President, BSCSD Board of Education
