New Hampshire Supreme Court Upholds Transgender Student Privacy Policy

The court's decision supports a school district's rule against disclosing students' gender identities without their consent.

The ruling was a 3-1 decision, rejecting a mother's challenge to the policy.
The policy encourages school staff not to disclose a student's transgender status to parents or others without permission.
The court found that the policy does not infringe on fundamental parenting rights.
LGBTQ rights groups, including GLAD and the ACLU, praised the decision.
The case marks the first time a state supreme court has ruled on such a policy.
