DALLAS — It was the first school board meeting of the new year in Grapevine-Colleyville and trustees were set to approve a sweeping set of policies that targeted transgender students’ pronouns, library books and the way teachers could talk about race, gender and sexuality.
The proposals drew nearly 200 people who testified late into the night. Then, with limited debate among the trustees, the policies passed on a 4-3 vote.
The next day, school board vice president Shannon Braun published an opinion piece headlined: “What Happened in GCISD Isn’t an Accident, It’s a Model.”
