California state superintendent called out for 'dangerous and extreme' gender policy: 'Perversion of children'

One California school board president is fighting back against the state's superintendent over the official's scrutiny surrounding a pro-parent gender policy in the classroom. 

The Chino Valley Unified School Board held a meeting last week addressing the new policy, which requires parental notification if a student expresses a desire to be identified or treated as a gender different from their biological sex, intends to use the bathroom and athletic facilities of the opposite sex, seeks a pronoun or name change, or if there are mental health concerns with the child. 

Chino Valley Unified School Board President Sonja Shaw accused California State Superintendent Tony Thurmond of trying to "pervert children" shortly before he was escorted by police out of the meeting.
